Cannot rematch or play new game after initial game. Have to close app for new game. Why??? • page 1/1 • Lichess Feedback • lichess.org

Why can I not play more than one game?
Why is home link dead?
Why is Lichess now so buggy, when for so long it wasn’t?
Why is there no way to email someone with issues?

In general this is a great app. But the support is really quite poor.

I can play more than one game, so your problem must be a little more specific to you somehow. What's a "home link"? Which bugs do you have? You don't need to email - you can raise issues here? But maybe be a little more specific so people don't have to guess what you're trying, and on which platform. Which Os, which browser and which version of the browser, or which version of the app.

The only problems I've seen recently are when the server's gone down, and I'm putting that down to the server having to deal with 80,000 simultaneous players where a year ago it was a fraction of that. I imagine their focus is currently on that.

I deleted the app, then redownloaded, but still have this problem ..

After I play someone, most often I cannot rematch to play that person again, my app is frozen.
I also cannot play another game with another person, again the app is frozen.

So I close the app, then reopen and things are fine.
This is a new issue for me, cropping up only in the last two weeks.

I’m wondering if I accidentally selected some option from one of the menus that is causing this. OR wondering if the app is penalizing me for too many aborted games with low-rated players.

Seems odd that I’d be the only iPad iOS user experiencing these bugs.

Does everything work correctly when you use the web browser?

Seems to just be on the iOS app. Bummer, thanks. Ho2 often do they update? Any idea? Are they keen to fix such things generally?

I get the impression the web site is definitely the main product. When it got the big revamp there was talk of not leaving the apps behind, but personally I was very happy with the revamp as the frequently reported bugs in puzzle syncing never got fix successfully at least on Android so I was happy to no longer have to rely on it. Perhaps you don't need the app either?
