How to fix move animation on chess.com computer website

Sort:

Whenever the computer is making a move, or I'm clicking on a square for my pieces to move, the animation of the pieces on my computer is super "laggy," which for me is almost unbearable. Although, I don't think its actually a lag problem, since for the most part the rest of the website is fast–it's purely the animation that appears laggy.

It’s a common issue. Refresh the page, that usually works for me.

Also make sure to check your piece animation settings

Unfortunately, I don't think refreshing worked for me. Also, can you elaborate on the piece animation settings?

Animation settings allow you to make your pieces move faster, slower, or with extra effects. It should be in the settings icon on the top right of the board.

Let me know if you got this fixed. I have the same issue when wishing to use arcade mode on google chrome. It's super laggy compared to microsoft edge. It's not a matter of selecting the animation settings to faster or slower because we have "Arcade" mode selected. For some reason it's only extremely slow with those 2 in particular. I have cleared my cache, restarted my computer, and cleaned my tabs. This has been an issue ever since I started months ago. Any help would be amazing! Thanks.

The client side resources will have a large impact on how well Arcade animation works. You might check the Chrome hardware acceleration setting and change it to see if that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately already tried that one with no success.
