can variants be accessed on mobile app? also, atomic chess strategies anyone?


The apps only natively supported the 960 variant.

You can access chess variant in mobile also. I discovered this by accident. Steps- 1. Open the Chess.com app. 2. Go to More. 3. Go to Club option. 4. Scroll down till the end. Here you will find some options like fair play, help, chess.com@2025 etc. 5. Click on the 'chess.com@2025' option. 6. Now you will find in the website home page of Chess.com 7. Click on the 'New Game' option. 8. Now you are able to select variant like Chess960, 3 Check, Bughouse, Crazyhouse, King of the Hill, 4 player variant and other varient.
This will work but it's best just to use a browser. In the app it's not directly supported and prone to be buggy
