undo moves with friends?

Is there any game mode, in which we can undo moves by agreement when playing with a friend? For training purposes this would be very helpful.

"Daily" used to have a takeback feature, unrated of course.  Let me see if I can find it without accidentally starting a game...

Sorry, I clicked all over the place and couldn't find it.  Support would know if it's still a feature, but it might take a while before they get back to you.

Sigh...As usual, just because I can't find something doesn't mean  it doesn't exist!  This is from the article on Daily Chess.  Guess you have to hit the More options button to find it.

  • Allow takebacks? - this option is only available for non-rated games. Takeback games allow for players to take back or ‘undo’ moves that have been played on the board. This setting is often used for teaching purposes.

Where is this option located? It doesn't appear  to be  in  the "new game" or "invite a  friend" sections?

Custom gets you to unrated.  I think another screen then opens up but I don't want to start a game accidentally...

you click on new game and then you dominated and then click on options and click allow takebacks

I had to go almost all the way to issuing the challenge, it wasn't until after i chose the game mode (daily in my case) and the actual friend i was going to challenge, the the option for takebacks popped up.
