PairGame

Checkers, Chess and Fleet Strike, phone to phone. No account, no internet, no server.

Getting started

1. Open PairGame on both devices and enter a name on each.
2. Allow Local Network and Bluetooth when iOS asks.
3. Tap Invite next to the other player. They tap Join.
4. Tap a game. The other player taps Play.

The other device doesn't show up, or won't connect

• Keep both devices close and unlocked with PairGame open.
• Check Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network and make sure PairGame is on. The lobby warns you when it's off.
• Make sure Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are on. You don't need to join a Wi-Fi network.
• Both devices must use the same setting under You > Connect with in the lobby.

A game paused

If the devices lose each other, the game waits and both keep trying to reconnect. It's saved after every move, so it also survives quitting the app. Either player can end a paused game.
