Another Android Lichess client: Acid Ape Chess

Interesting indeed!

Unfortunately as of now I cannot connect to lichess using my lichess account - I keep getting "Check you credentials"?!
I can connect and play anonymously though.

I could connect to the ICC but can not actually play the game - I can't input a move.
Again it works only when I connect anonymously.

DGT board connection via Bluetooth works great and that's what actually interests me the most of the app. I could play a 5+5 game (anonymously only - see above) on both lichess and the ICC using my DGT board. Nice.

I will definitely keep watching this app, it looks promising. Thanks for sharing.

I tested it it works well with the blutooth DGT. Very encouraging to see that happening on Android. I don't know any other app that do it.
When seeking a game on lichess, unfortunately you cannot choose a ELO range for your opponents. I guess it is because it is still a beta version. I emailed the author about it.
