Love it if you could develop a virtual timer that will work with the custom puzzles on chess.com. every other section has an on-screen timer, the puzzle rush for instance ... but there is not even an option to display one, for the custom puzzles. Obviously I could keep track with a real-world timer, but I would have to manually operate it and given the number of puzzles I work on daily, it just wouldn't be worth it. Just looking for something simple that will operate automatically with the chess.com application.

Thank you.

I think I may have found a bug. When using Bronstein method, if you pause the clock, resume the clock, and switch players it adds another 2 seconds to the original player's clock. For example, if you have a 5 min clock with 10 second bonus, and you pause, resume, and switch players before the first ten seconds have run out, the clock will start at 5:02 for that player's next turn, rather than the maximum 5 minutes allowed for the game. Not a huge issue, but just thought I'd see if that could be fixed.

Update: decided to just keep playing rapid, rated 45 min and using an app for in-person games.

What timer or solution would you suggest for playing on chess.com (with takebacks allowed) with a self-imposed time limit (ie. we would like 45 mins per player)?

In this use case, the best current solution seem to be using a browser or mobile/app based timer such as the wonderful chessclock.org.

The reason a timer is needed, is because we want to play with takebacks on, but without allowing a whole day per move.

The drawback is that only one person can see and control the timer. I could stream the timer (e.g. via Discord) but I wondered if anyone else had come across this problem and found a solution?

The main problem is having to use a separate timer if we want to allow takebacks and have a game that is shorter than daily, as well only 1 person being able to see the timer, esp. if sharing a screen/window will over-complicate the game.

Both players could run separate timers, which would have pros and cons, but maybe there are more elegant solutions.

Really nice, but as it has been said, it doesn't allow blitz.

The chess clock.org is great really, but I think you should add a wider key range on computer bacause i keep mishitting

Hi,

Thanks for the comments!

I've just released a new version. As suggested, I've added an option to use spacebar to switch clock between players.

All settings are also preserved across games.

Hope you enjoy.

I've also fixed small issue on bronstein mode reported by @ChupaThing.

what about a small little text box displaying the move number? it would be optional

alexistoulotte

@kaptain_kezzo You mean move duration?

I've just improved clock rotations on mobile/tablet for lateral or heads up gaming.
