Conditional Moves in Correspondence?

FAO Dev team

A nice addition to the correspondence chess here would be inclusion of adding conditional moves; were you can input 'premoves' based on specific move responses, this would save time in known sequences / exchanges and allow people to play more of the game in shorter bursts, reducing the frequency of users opening lichess to make a move they already knew they were going to make.

A little sidebar were you can input these would be awesome to see if this is something that can be implemented easily, I know chess.com have this feature on their daily chess but their UI is horrible and there are too many cheaters etc.

Thanks for continuing to roll out new updates and continue to improve an already excellent site :)

Many thanks

I was in chess.com beta for some time, i may tell you that it only exists (at least for now) in browser, because the chess.com app, even the one being developed, don't have that funtionality. At least for the moment.

This is already a feature! Go to the analysis board, enter a conditional move or set of moves, and use the little item at the left of the board to add the conditional.

It's only available in the browser version of lichess I think, not the apps.

I stopped using the app when the site became responsive, but I believe that is correct. I didn't realize the OP was talking about the app?
