Farboard

Chess with a friend, near or far.

Create an invite, your opponent scans a QR code, and you each play on your own device. End-to-end encrypted moves, take-back and draw requests, and games that survive reloads, sleeping phones and patchy networks.

Companion: ChessTracker mirrors a game played with real pieces on a real table — legal moves, notation and material count, no engine.
