Good to know

This app has not been tested on all board configurations and hardware. Use at your own risk.

Boards with older hardware may not refresh as fast as newer hardware, making games unplayable and animations slow.

The Safari browser does not support Web Bluetooth, so you will have to use the iOS App if you are on an iOS device, or Chrome on MacOS.
