Question about Review

Noob question about an after game review. After the game ends you can go back and make some different branches, test different sequences, etc … I was surprised when I saw it written on the chat: “Review” with a number on the side, and when I clicked on it, I could see in real time my opponent putting stones with several variations, putting marks in some stones, drawing all over the board, making annotations, like there was a teacher telling what happened after the game was over. Whenever I make a different branch after the game ends, a Review is automatically made and is available to be seen in real time by my opponent (and forever by everyone)?? Or there’s some option to be made private/public?

You can just “analyze game” without making a review.

Normal variations aren’t saved. You need to make a review first, which is what you saw in chat. No review, no saved variations.

Thanks! And reviews are always saved, public and can be seen in real time?

It’s possible to save variations without creating a review. Use Personal Notes, play out a variation, and click in the field “variation name”.

Aaah, yes AFAIK there are no known exceptions. All reviews should autosave and be public in real time.
