I can’t adjust my opponent rating ranges beyond the following: -25/+400 or -400/+25. In either cases, I’ll receive opponents -25/+25. This is especially stupid due to basically being unable to play outside of your rating range.

In legacy chess.com, there was a graph (rating vs time) of active challenges you could choose your opponent from. How do I enable that graph in mobile?

Open Challenges on mobile is only for Daily games. It is under More > Custom Games

Under More > Settings > Play check your Rating Limits for Outgoing

I’ve adjusted my outgoing rating limit to -inf/+25. It doesn’t work and gives me people +-25.

You're getting some players that are lower rated than you

Yes, but it’s not going to give me people -400 from me. Likewise when I adjust +400/-25, I won’t be getting anyone over 1800 bullet (I’m 1700 bullet).

I think it may still try to keep it closer but it will be possible to get larger gaps. However, it has to match other member's seek settings as well. There are probably fewer members that have wide enough ranges that have compatible seeks to yours to give you that gap very often
