Undo Last Move
Made a blunder? No problem! Take back your last move in casual games and learn from your mistakes without penalty. Perfect for practice and learning.
What is Undo Move?
The Undo Move feature allows you to take back your last move in casual chess games. This is perfect for learning situations where you want to explore different variations, correct mistakes, or simply experiment with different strategies without the pressure of permanent decisions.
🎯 Learn Without Fear
Making mistakes is part of learning chess. The Undo feature lets you experiment freely, try bold moves, and learn from errors in a stress-free environment.
How It Works

Best Practices
Use for Learning: Undo is a powerful learning tool. Use it to explore “what if” scenarios and understand position better.
Think First: Don’t rely on undo as a crutch. Try to think through moves before playing them.
Casual Only: Remember that competitive games don’t allow undos. Practice making careful decisions.
Compare Variations: After undoing, try different moves to see which works best in the position.
Build Confidence: Use undo to build confidence in your move selection without fear of permanent mistakes.
Learning from Your Mistakes
The Undo feature isn’t just about fixing errors—it’s about understanding them. Here’s how to maximize your learning:
1. Identify the Error
Before undoing, understand what made the move bad. Was it a tactical oversight, positional mistake, or calculation error?
2. Find Alternatives
Look for better moves. What should you have played instead? Consider multiple candidate moves.
3. Remember the Pattern
Internalize the correct pattern so you don’t make the same mistake in future games.
⚠️ Important Limitations
- • Undo is not available in competitive/rated games to ensure fair play
- • Only the last move can be undone at a time
- • Cannot undo after the game has ended (checkmate, stalemate, resignation)
- • Both players must agree to undo in two-player casual games (coming soon)
