Just curious, why does the app accuracy rating differ from the web site accuracy rating? It’s not a huge difference, but about 4% .

Please document this by showing at least one example. Screenshots would be nice.

The lowest is from the app. Just curious about it. Thanks for the reply.

Because the app and website likely uses different engine depth. Even if you run a deeper analysis both on the website (or both on the app) then the CAPS accuracy rating still adjusts some. IM @DanielRensch explained it well in a video. I'll see if I can find it, but basically the "accuracy" was just a fun chess.com statistic aimed at beginner players. 100% accuracy does not necessarily mean the absolute "perfect" move was played 100% of the time.

Ahh thanks, that makes sense. Thank you for the reply.
