Log in once and play real games against other people on Lichess.
Instructive and challenging puzzles to improve vision and knowledge of useful tactics.
ChessPAD runs on e-ink — the same screen technology as an e-reader. It looks like paper, doesn't strain your eyes at night, doesn't lose its brightness in sunlight, and holds its charge for a long time between top-ups. It's built to feel like a real chessboard that happens to know the rules, not another screen competing for your attention. Giving online chess the opportunity to feel like a break from screens.
