Hi Chess.com team,
I noticed that the “Play” button in the Custom Position Analysis section has been removed recently. I’m requesting the return of a feature that was recently removed from the analysis board. Earlier, there was a Play button (▶️) in the analysis section that would automatically play all the moves like a GIF animation—showing every move from both sides smoothly, one after another.
This feature was incredibly helpful for learning because it allowed us to:
The new system requires clicking moves manually, which slows down the learning process a lot.
So, I kindly request Chess.com to please bring back the automatic “play button” in Analysis mode. It was one of the most useful tools for players trying to study efficiently.
Thank you for considering this!
