Daily chess - disable timeout auto claim victory

Hi,

Does anyone know if this option is available in the android app? https://support.chess.com/article/514-how-can-i-prevent-getting-wins-based-on-timeouts

I have won a few games because my opponent has ran out of time and I really don't want to win because of this. Alternatively is there a way as a paid member to disable my own automatic vacation on setting? At least that way the same rules apply when I am playing people on free accounts.

You'll need to make the change on the website. However, you can't turn off your own timeout protection.

Okay thanks, I have disabled the setting on the website. Hopefully it flows through to the app games.
