For anyone who types chess moves on their phone.

Day 1 of the tournament resulted in a 1/2 score. Should have won the second game too I think, but not too bad. Having a lot of fun regardless! On to day 2 tomorrow. #ChessSky #ChessPunks

Good morning, currently on the way to an OTB classical chess tournament! #ChessSky #ChessPunks
Things my phone has turned O-O into: a smiley, "O-O," "Oh," and once, memorably, "Oops."
BlitzKeys has a dedicated castling button. O-O and O-O-O. No autocorrect opinions.

Genuine question for chess players: how do you type notation on your phone? Standard keyboard mode-switching? Shorthand? Just suffer?
I got annoyed enough to build a keyboard for it. BlitzKeys. On iOS.

#chesspunks #chess
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 a6
Typing that on a standard phone keyboard means switching modes ~30 times. On BlitzKeys it's one tap per element.

It took 3262 games, but I finally got my first smothered mate. On move 7 too! #chesspunks
Loslos, Runde 2 der #FIDECandidates läuft 👏
An die Internetempfangsgeräte, liebe Bubble und liebe #Chesspunks !
I built an iOS keyboard for maybe 200 people. Just piece symbols, files, ranks, and notation marks. One tap per element.
If you've ever typed O-O-O on a phone keyboard and wanted to throw it, you're one of the 200.

Happy First Round of #FIDECandidates2026 and #FIDEWomensCandidates2026 day! #ChessSky #ChessPunks
#chesspunks #chess I'm trying to teach myself how to effectively analyze my OTB games. So many different thoughts and opinions out there. None of them seem sustainable.
GM Noel Studer's 3x3 method seems like a VERY focused, sustainable place to start. any thoughts or opinions on this method?

After dinner #chess with my mentee in Marrickville! With White, I managed to play the Vienna Gambit, Accepted, which almost always goes well! #chesspunks

Played in my regional league this evening, and won! I think this was my first competitive game since January and I'm gaining around 15 national rating points from it. Now on to my tournament next weekend! #Chess #ChessSky #ChessPunks
Typed out the entire Immortal Game on my phone using BlitzKeys. 1.e4 e5 2.f4 exf4 3.Bc4 Qh4+ ... through 23.Be7#.
On a standard keyboard that's an ordeal. On a notation keyboard it's just tapping.

Autocorrect turns Nf3 into "NF3." O-O becomes a smiley. And exd5 becomes... whatever exd5 becomes.
BlitzKeys: an iOS keyboard where every notation element is one tap. No autocorrect. No mode switching.

Chess Hot Take:
I played the London and I liked it!
Not sure this qualifies as a hot take but I said what I said 😂
Any #chesspunks have any chess related Hot Takes?
Pretty! Black to play and mate in three. Nice example of a “reloader.” #chesspunks

Double rook sac for the checkmate is a great way to gain some confidence after a really big slide over the past 1.5 months that had me lose a lot of confidence. #chesspunks #chess

After an all time high of 850, I’m about to drop out of the 700s. Chess is brutal. #chesspunks
