Confirming moves before submitting
By default, clicking a point plays your move immediately. If you'd rather have a moment to look before it counts — especially on a phone, where a stray tap is easy — turn on Confirm moves before submitting under Settings.
With it on, clicking a point places a provisional stone and shows two buttons under the board:
- Submit Move — play it. Your opponent sees nothing until you do.
- Cancel Move — take the stone back and choose again. Nothing is sent.
The setting is per account and applies to all of your games, correspondence and real-time alike.
