## Description

Chess Bhaitak is where over-the-board chess happens. Find chess players near you, pick a cafe or<br>park, and sit down across a real board — no clocks running out on a screen, no strangers rage-<br>quitting mid-game.<br><br>This is not an online chess app. There is no engine, no puzzles, no bots. It does one thing: it gets<br>you to a table with another human who wanted a game as much as you did.<br><br>♟ FIND CHESS PLAYERS NEAR YOU<br>See who is playing nearby and what they play like. Every player shows a rating band, availability,<br>and whether they bring their own board. Link your chess.com account and verify it in one tap, so<br>the person you are meeting knows your strength is real and not a claim.<br><br>♟ A MAP OF PLACES TO PLAY<br>Cafes, parks, clubs and community spots near you, on a map. Tap any place to host a match there.<br>Venue search is powered by Google Places, so you can pick anywhere — or add your own spot by hand.<br><br>♟ HOST A MATCH IN SECONDS<br>Choose a time, choose a venue, publish. Make it a one-off, or set it to repeat weekly, every two<br>weeks or monthly and let a regular chess meetup build itself. Add a co-host to share the running of<br>it.<br><br>♟ REQUESTS, INVITES AND SEATS<br>Players ask to join your match; you accept or decline with one tap. Accepts and cancellations arrive<br>as notifications even when the app is closed, so nobody is left waiting at a table.<br><br>♟ MATCH DAY<br>Check in when you arrive, check out when you&#39;re done, record the result, and leave feedback on the<br>player and the venue. Your played matches build a history you can look back on.<br><br>♟ BUILT FOR MEETING STRANGERS SAFELY<br>Requesters stay anonymous until a match is confirmed — names and photos only appear once both sides<br>have agreed to play. Your location is never shown as an address: you appear as an approximate area,<br>and match pins sit on public venues. Phone numbers stay hidden until check-in. Report or block any<br>player, any time. Location is coarse-only and never collected in the background.<br><br>♟ WORKS ON A BAD CONNECTION<br>Your matches, requests and nearby lists are cached on the device, so the app opens with real content<br>instead of a spinner. Accept or decline a request with no signal and it sends itself the moment you<br>are back online.<br><br>STARTED IN PAKISTAN<br>Chess Baithak was built for the chess baithaks of Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad — the cafe tables<br>and park benches where the real games have always been played. It works anywhere there is a place to<br>sit and someone to play.<br><br>WHO IT IS FOR<br>- Players who want a face-to-face game and don&#39;t know where to find one<br>- Anyone new to a city looking for a chess club or chess community<br>- Organisers running a recurring chess meetup<br>- Board owners happy to bring the set if someone brings the game<br><br>Sign in with Google or email. Free to use. Delete your account and all your data from inside the app<br>at any time.<br><br>Bring a board. Or don&#39;t — someone else will.
