Chess Clock

Set the time per side, then tap your own clock after each move, that starts your opponent's clock and stops yours.

Tap either player's side to start their opponent's clock.

How to use the chess clock

  1. Set minutes per side and, if you use one, an increment per move.
  2. Tap a side to start the game, that starts the opponent's clock.
  3. After each move, tap your own side again: it adds any increment and switches to your opponent.

Frequently asked questions

What is increment?

A Fischer increment adds a few seconds back to a player's clock after each move they complete, so games do not end purely because the clock ran out mid-game.
