DailyGammon

@CrankyBill57: About/Credits shows Jordan Lampe, DailyGammon webapp’s Chief Programmer. DG V1.4.2 fixes iPhone 14 Pro display issues with new “Dynamic Island”. Thanks! DailyGammon (DG) app is free and ad-free (!!) client for the long-running DailyGammon web-based application. No annoying sounds or animations. Developed independently of the webapp. You can invite DG friends by name to private matches. You can play one or dozens of games / tournaments with human opponents, without time pressure (depending on tournament). Much MUCH easier to see and use than DG's built-in web interface on mobile. DailyGammon has no bots (I think), unlike FIBS. You don't need to be online at the same time as opponents (asynchronous) yet you can usually submit three or more plays per game at a time, thanks to built-in predictive model. Greatly speeds game progression. Can privately chat with opponents for a bit of socializing, but this is no WhatsApp. (DG website also has public forums for non-private discussion.) You need to use browser+email only to initially setup (free) account, but that’s it. DG web can also show game histories and statistics (including game download for offline review / analysis). Once your DG web account is created, to enter tournaments and play games, this DG App is all you need.

Can play simultaneous games with over a dozen human opponents at once, with minimal time pressure. No bots (I think). You don’t need to be online at the same time, yet you can make three or four plays at a time with most games. Can chat with opponents. DailyGammon is a simple ad-free (!!) graphical client for the long-running DailyGammon web-based service. No annoying sounds or animations. No costs. You still need to use browser+email to initially setup account, but for very little after that. Can also get play history and statistics only via web. But just to play games, DG App is all you need.
