Square Off Electronic Chess Set

I am keen to purchase a square off electronic chess set, however (if I am correct) it is not compatible with Lichess, are there any plans to make Lichess compatible ?
thankyou

This question should be addressed to Square Off. Lichess provides an API that anyone can use, the rest is up to those who use it.

Ahhhh ok thankyou

Yea you can-- squareoffnow.com/pro

They are compatible

I have a friend that has one of their Electronic boards, and I can confirm to you that it's compatible with lichess, the connection is made via either a 3rd party app or the square-off app (can't remember which one)

Sorry, I am still a bit confused - I noticed that in settings there is "Lichess & DGT
This page allows you to connect your DGT board to Lichess, and to use it for playing games."
So I assumed that a DGT board is somehow associated with Lichess and that Squareoff is not ?
would it be perhaps better to not say a brand name (DGT) and say electonic chess board?
thankyou for your feedback

Lichess is definiteley not associated with any brand. It just allows these brands products to communicate with lichess so you can use a DGT-Board or a square-off Board with the services lichess provides.

Ok, thankyou for the clarification.

I had a DGT Pegasus but sadly it didn’t work as I hoped it would. The board connected via an app so id expect the SO to work the same way. It’s a great idea if it works!
