I found, by coincidence, that you can play (unrated) odds games. This is a great way of letting people with (very) different playing strength play each other. In the iOS app, I challenged a friend and the app noticed our large rating difference and suggested I give him odds. This should be made easier to find, perhaps under "Type" (now: Standard or 960) when creating a challenge. Also, I'd like to create open challenges with odds, but I can only find it once I've challenged someone.
In the browser version, I couldn't find odds games, even after challenging the same friend. Is it available at all in the browser? Where?
You can only play odds when directly challenging someone under Custom Game under Play (not the Live Chess menu option)
