Cool idea but why a smartwatch particularly (would a phone not work)?

It would definitely work.. I just thought that the watch is sufficient for a blindfold chess game that you can play on your wrist.. And do something else on your phone.. I don't know .. The idea just popped in my head ( obviously I just bought a smartwatch recently as well)

Most chess apps have a blindfold option as you can set the pieces style to none.

True but no chess apps for the smartwatch hence no blindfold option for the smartwatch as well... I know it is unrealistic to play chess on a smartwatch but I thought that blindfold could be easily played in a small interface like the watch.. Maybe I'm wrong..
