So, I've encountered a bug that I thought was only on the mobile app. But, I believe it's a problem with the server. I wasn't seeing correspondence games I had recently started coming to the top of my "queue" inspite of these games eventually running out of time. Trying to get to the bottom of things, I came on to the site to try and figure out what's going on.
I could find these "missing" games... but, only after a laborious search in which I had to go to my profile, then my correspondence rating, view all the games, then click on the "active games" tab. Once I found the games, I could make moves in them. But, even after doing that, they still couldn't be found using the mobile app.
As an experiment, I made a move in a game, had the "auto-switch" button ON... and, went back to the app. As I made moves in the games I could access with the app, the same game would be in my active browser window. I'd make a move on the app, the same move would happen in the browser, the game would switch to the next "active" game... as I made the last move in the "last" available game using the mobile app (and, left with NO GAME NOTIFICATIONS on the app)... the "auto-switch" stopped bringing up the next game in my browser window. However, when I'd look at all my games, the newest ones still had moves to be made in them.
So... from what I gather. The mobile app uses features of the website, like "auto-switch", to give the user the game notifications. I currently have 160 correspondence chess games active right now. But, my mobile app only shows me 50 game notifications at the most. Further, it seems that the website won't "auto-switch" past these original 50 games.
I've lost quite a few games because of this... simply, not knowing I was running out of time.
Please resolve this, as I mostly exclusively use the mobile app to play on the lichess.org server.
