Move confirmation

Is there a way to have is ask you to confirm your move in live chess? I currently blunder 5-10% of my games due to a misclick. Either I don't notice my piece is selected and click the board or I click between two squares or I accedently click because my trackpad is my mouse. I noticed the iPod app has such a feature.

Make your touchpad so it does not click, because if its on and you move your touchpad, you might click sometimes.

Yes, same problem here. Mouse problems just costed me a game.

Only ipad have "confirm" option. Why chess.com do the same for laptop?

An extra "confirm" would be detrimental to anyone under time constraints. Bad idea.

Can you please implement "confirm" button? It has cost me many games. The android app has the confirm button. So i win more games on phone. Can you please implement this?

No. We do not want an extra "confirm" button.

For the Android, it is already there!

Go to :

Settings: Live Chess: "Show submit button", then change it to "yes".

Simple.

Would be great if you have this for a laptop with Windows also! I just lost two games just because of a wrong mousepad click  Cry.

in the old days you could confirm moves. can we please restore this function, i was just in the middle of a great game, and i brushed the touch pad by mitake and ruined the game ! its its happened many times before

yeah, cause your opinion is all that matters. it would obviously be optional.

I agree with most people here asking for the 'confirm' button: it makes no sense it is in the iphone (or Android) version and not in the online's. By the way would be optional...

I don't understand the rationale for not having a confirm button ... lost or resigned many a game because of mis-click ..!!

I did that once, but having the confirm button is kind of cheating. on a real game, once you play you're move, you can't confirm it.
kieronkawall

not really .. just a safeguard for slipped finger on touchpad which often occurs .. even after a long considered time before moving ...

The problem is that they have it on the iphone app but browser it seems, so I get used to it on iphone because I like the feature but then play a game on my laptop and forget it's not going to ask me to confirm.

I also would like a confirm move button. Mouse and touchpad has cost me too many games.
