Can you give that to me in football fields?

Hmmm...I was aware of such a bug that existed until a couple months ago that was related to moves effectively being replayed twice resulting in nonsense positions but thought it was fixed. Are you running the latest version of the app? If so, can you try to derive a set of reproducible steps to cause the bug and submit an issue at github.com/veloce/Lichobile? I'd love to irradicate these sorts of bugs.

On Lichess there is a patron system for those who can/want to pay, but every feature (deep computer analysis, lessons, etc.) are free and ad-free. Chess.com's free tier is limited in a number of ways and displays ads. (Full disclosure: I am not the primary developer but do work on the Lichess app)
freefal··on I made an iPhone game with PhoneGap and won't do it again
As others have pointed out, your mistake was trying to develop a graphics-heavy game with the wrong toolset. I'm one of the devs that works on the Android and iOS apps for lichess.org and we've had a lot of success with Cordova/PhoneGap. It's allowed us to do all our development once with occassional workarounds needed for platform specific issues.
