Live Chess Glitch

I've had a glitch several times today where in situations where I have two pieces that can both go to the same square, but when I premove one of the pieces to that square it moves the other one there instead. Most commonly this has happened when I've had knights on b1 and f3, and when I premove the b1 knight to d2, it moves my f3 knight there instead. It also happened with my rooks once as well - I had connected rooks, but it moved the wrong one when I premoved.

I don't think I'm the only one experiencing this - I saw a Chessbrah video uploaded a couple days ago where GM Hambleton had the same thing happen to him (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28NlgB5Y29w). That's identical to what happened to me multiple times.

Well what you supposed to do, if you want it checked out, is to file a bug report. Send it to support@chess.com. Tell them what device and operating system you are using. Which app release you are using, if you are using one.

Posting here gets no action.

Posting in the Beta club forum often gets noticed, if you join the Beta club.
