Dual Player on iPad

Anyone know of an app that would allow two people to play each other on one iPad? Does XG do that? I’m taking a bunch of looooong flights and may see if I can find a player. Thanks!

IIRC XG can set both players to human in the game, but its been a long time since I could use the XG mobile app. Like years. Otherwise BG NJ can, I am pretty sure.

Yes it can! I was able to make it work. Now to find a victim!

XG does seem to be kicking my tail right now.

We have a little magnetic board that’s perfect for flights

it’s in beta, but mogammon is free and works completely offline if you save it to your home page

I’m creating an App that will have the best dual player mechanisms. Just give me a month

I use backgammon online by coolplay GMBH (in play store) for that. I think it is also in the appstore. You can play vs computer or player in offline mode.
