Set/change time control on mobile app

Edit: Resolved. Just hit the big green "Play" button/bar and not the checkboard "Play Online" button. Under "Play" there are all the options.

Big thanks to Martin who took the time.

**************

I have the mobile app for Android version 4.6.25_oldLcc-googleplay-244135. It is the newest version available for me in Goggle Play Store.

It seems it is not possible to change the time control for live games. I'm locked in to 5¦5, starting a new game only ever lets me play at that time setting. How can I change it? In the web browser it is super easy with the presets and also custom, but in the mobile app there is no such functionality it seems?

I seem to remember in the past (years ago) that was also possible with the mobile app.

Thanks for any help.

There's a Custom option in the app under More but clicking the time control button will open the dialog to change the time control

Thanks but under which sub-menu in More, as there are so many?

Edit: I can change the elo range for opponents, but cannot find time settings.

Edit 2: I do not have a "Custom" sub-menu under "More".

Under More (bottom right icon with the 3 lines) there is:

Stats, Profile, Theme, Awards, Friends, Messages, Settings

Learn: Analysis, Explorer, Endgames, Practice, Insights, Vision, Solo Chess

Connect: Events, Leaderboard, Players League, Chess TV, Articels, Watch, Forums, Clubs, News, Other Apps

Account: Membership, Report Problem, Help

That's all.

Martin, which app version do you have installed, if I may ask?

I'm on 4.6.40 but the layout has been the same for a long time. I'll post some screenshots.

If you click the time button

you'll get

You can also use More > Custom Game to get more customization options

Hi Martin, thank you kindly for your helpful posts. I found the feature and it is resolved.

Actually, it was always right there, as you said. My mistake was that I always just "blindly" hit the "Play Online" chessboard button instead of the green "Play" bar and make a "New Game". Sure enough, all options are available there. This is totally on me and I apologize for any confusion I may have created for other users. I edited the first post.
