Same issue, and even my finger takes 2 or more touches sometimes to register
S-Pen not working for puzzles anymore?
Sort:
Yeah it's been happening for 2 weeks now. The strangest thing is that it only happens when doing puzzles and is specific to the board. I can select everything else with the pen, just not the pieces. Which is weird because I can play regular games with it..
I thought this was just my problem, apparently not. I got a few wrong by stylus touching unintended square. And it had never happened before a couple weeks back, I switched stylus because I thought there was something wrong with the previous one. I have not done rated puzzles with the new stylus, just daily & custom so I don't know if the problem only occures in rated ones because in them I have not had that problem.
also seeing the issues described, bump

I have the same issue on my Note 20 Ultra. However my screen is damaged, and the only way I can play is with the S-Pen...now I can't play puzzles. Works fine with games. How can I report this?

Same thing has been happened to me. I use a s24 ultra and it's been frying my head more than chess. I genuinely thought it was my phone/pen.
Same problem here, still can't figure out a solution. Definitely some kind of a bug in the code, or a new feature to the board that no longer register the sPen as an input.
Samsung sucks iPhone is better (lmao I'm just joking, sorry, but I had to do this).
I love Chess.com, and I especially love playing on my S24 Ultra. However, of late, I've noticed that my S-Pen no longer works for puzzles. It truly sux, are there any bug fixes on the way?
