They do have the option.  The problem is that it doesn't work. 



Read the description/hover over the question mark, it does its intended feature, though that doesn't mean it makes sense

Not implementing this feature is a terrible UX design choice. I have lost a significant amount of games playing with a track pad and accidentally clicking instead of dropping.

Once again I dropped the Queen on the wrong square because my mouse hand moved slightly while I clicked the from square, and it was taken as a one square move. Please repair the click to move option. I do beg you.

This is so stupid. Why are they not fixing this ?

Looks like I'll also have to cancel my subscription and move onto some other platform like L I C H E S S or C H E S S 24

Thanks Chess.com for adding the Drag Only feature! I know it is greatly appreciated by many of us!

TheDecy

Is that a joke? If you read it carefully, it states (you can always use either method)

The_Vorpal_Blade

No it's not, there is now an option for Drag Only, check the settings. I just changed mine.

The_Vorpal_Blade

There were only 2 options before one for Drag, which included the ability to also click, and just Click. The message that is shown above applied to the Drag option. However, there is now a 3rd option, which is Drag Only.
