Board and game settings

Move labels

With Move labels on, every move in games and analysis shows its quality icon (Brilliant, Great, Best, Excellent, Good, Book, Inaccuracy, Mistake, Miss, Blunder).

Tip: if the board feels slow, set the animation to fast and turn off effects. If you mis-click, turn on confirm resign and use drag only.
