[SOLVED] Hi all, i've just received a chessnut go and the bluetooth connection isn't showing up in any of my devices (pc/mac/ android tablet and 2 two different iphones) anyone had the same problem?

I'm contacting the company for the problem.

Very strange

You don't connect that way. You just connect through the Chessnut app or if you want, the Chessconnect extension (see the long post about it here).

Thank you Rsava, my bad, it's working like it should.

Excellent. If you have any more questions or issues, just ask.

FYI - As much as I love Chessnut products, they can be a little slow to respond to things. They will eventually but it sometimes takes them a couple of days. There is a good community of users here so it may be quicker to ask here first.

Also, if you have not checked it out look into the Chessonnect extension, created by a chess[]com users (@joernupbde) and works very well both here and on Lichess.

Thank you guys, i've already installed the chessconnect extension and it works flawlessy.

I've also installed graham's programs https://goneill.co.nz/chess.php that integrate the board (and other brands) in many chess programs included chessbase and fritz.
