Apparently, bot games are still available in the apps. at least the Android app.
How do you get to your previous bot games?
If you're playing on your phone, scroll down to the main page. There's a game history section containing game bots.
I am on a desktop. Features shouldn't be based on one permutation. They should be available on all, mobile phone/tablet, desktop, Android, iPhone (or whatever mobile crap they use), Linux, MacOS (or whatever crap they use), and Microcrap (which is what they use).

Yes. There are big differences between the website and the apps in many features. This has long been true because of the differences in the operating systems and the average screen sizes and the available memory. The differences are not as stark now as they were ten years ago but they still exist. Therefore, differences in features persist.
We don't know why the saved bot games are no longer visible in the website version archive. Perhaps it was a short term removal. Perhaps it was part of a longer term plan. The site's management does explain some things it does. Other things go unexplained.
In the meantime, I thought you wanted a secret place to find your bot games. I was able to find some of my old bot games by using the Android app.

How is displaying a .pgn of a bot different than a human? Chess.com was able to do this before.

So, it has NOTHING to do with stark differences. It has to do with a human decision. B.S. dismantled.

Was or is?

Don't expect subscriptions, new or old ones continuing if you limit features.

I use desktop, which I stated before. You guys should really read and not use AI chat bot replies.
Also, I used the word "clicking". You do NOT click on an Android device. You press buttons with your finger. Clicking would be for a mouse.
I was actually hoping to use another term. Take it up with your mates in Belgium. An OS hated on for 27 years.

I am just a user like you. I am not on the staff. Mods are not staff. They are just volunteers trying to help other users.
I cannot explain chess.com’s actions to you because they don't reveal very much about what they are doing.
I understand that you usually use the desktop version but I was happy to offer you a chance to try something new to get what you said you wanted .

That's what they want you to do. You could refuse to do this. I am not going to give up a desktop and use another device because chess.com decides to play dictator with bot games. I can just play Lucas chess and modify the settings. There is also an option to set the threshold where the tutor helps. Instead of stopping you at every .3 inaccuracy you can tell it to only report mistakes. You can then go back in the game and essentially get the coaching chess.com charges for. There's also Lichess and Chessify, probably others now. They all support desktop users.
How do you want to volunteer? Helping desktop users or making them give up the desktop?
Clicking "Game Review" used to list the bot games in our history. Now, it doesn't work. Is there a secret place we can view our bot games?
