Pre-move and playing really quickly

Avatar of Max_Schachmann

Hi, 

When playing on my mobile with only few seconds, and trying to pre-move, before completing the pre-move, it gets cancelled when my opponent makes my move. Like this, I have to touch the same piece twice for one move in order to complete the move? Is this normal? It makes playing bullet/blitz quite annoying. 

To be clear: I touch my king to play Kc4-d5. Then before clicking on d5, the opponent completes his move. Then I have to touch my king again, and then on d5.

Cheers

Well GMs want to do things well. It is not fun losing just because you don't know how the pre-move works around here. Any expert here?

Yes, I was tapping. I will see how the press and hold would work for me. Thanks!

from what I have read here. ppl lose on bullet like 100 points just cuz they played on phone. 1 your fingers block the screen when you move 2 someone calls you in just in the wrong time. still I also play on phone but I'm not a bullet player.
