This Google Chrome extension increases accessibility on the chess.com site by enabling you to click a board square via your browser's speech recognition or your keyboard. A two-digit coordinate system is used for the move input (a1 = 11, b3 = 23, c5 = 35, etc.), which is straightforward for speech recognition to pickup.
Special notes:
- If you display the inside or outside board coordinates using chess.com's board settings, you can then click the extension's "Toggle number/letter" button to switch the column coordinate letters to numbers. This will help you quickly see which two-digit coordinates correspond to which squares. You can always toggle back to letters with the same button.
- To simulate a mouse click on a board square, you have two options: 1) announce the double-digit coordinates after clicking the mic icon button (you only have to do this once, click it again to turn it off), or 2) use your keyboard (or your operating system's speech recognition) to enter the double-digit coordinates into the form input field. You can still use your mouse like normal whenever you want.
- The board square will look like a mouse clicked on it if you announce a valid coordinate. Anything invalid that is announced or entered will simply be ignored.
- If using the form input field, note that the moment two non-whitespace characters are entered into it, the field will automatically clear itself.

cant give a zero?
Too confusing. Makes no sense why the developer would use a coordinate system and not a standard notation or at the very least, give both options.
Excuse me, can you just please stop making clickbait extensions and try them out for yourself. Please don't be such a big internet scammer. Wasted my time!
An excellent free Chess.com addition! Pros: 1. Works exactly as advertised 2. Free 3. No adds 4. Very easy to set up 5. Works with Chess.com! Cons: 1. Speech recognition requires a few attempts sometimes, a good microphone or talking loudly is required. 2. 11=a1 is a great option, would like for a1,b1,c1 etc speech recognition to work not just 11,21,31...
