I made some changes which should improve things. If there are still issues, please create a new item with specifics.

Angela Galway (atd1962), you don't need to be a member to view analysis (but thank you very much for joining!).
Are you on phone? If so you might need to turn to landscape mode before the review button will appear (see Denis-George's screenshot for button location).
Analysis doesn't fit into portrait on a phone unfortunately, so the button is hidden in this layout.
If you're on a small screen you might also find the new "collapse chat" option useful while reviewing.

Alfie Kirkpatrick [Developer] actually I think it depends on how small is that small screen. On my phone Sony Xperia Z5 compact (4.6 inches screen), that review button does not appear either. Also, when playing I am unable to see my timer when I play (not even if in fullscreen). These things happen regardless if I keep my phone in vertical or landscape position.
Also I can't seem to locate the collapse chat option (maybe it is available only when reviewing a match, which it seems I can't either on my small screen). Btw, I believe that if the collapse chat option would be available during play as well, it might help to allow see my timer while playing ?

Denis-George Constantin (playhunter) it's hard to make everything fit nicely!!
The intention is that you play matches in landscape and the chat / clocks appear to the right of the board. Portrait mode is more for watchers. I had to add a min-height to the chat messages because it was disappearing completely and players couldn't see their messages.
You can't see the collapse button because it only appears when the chat appears to the right! When collapsed the clocks are hidden too, but I intend to add small versions top and bottom.
I will try and replicate your Z5 in the Chrome dev tools. The reported pixels are derived from the physical resolution of your screen and the DPI, I believe. If you get a couple of minutes can you visit https://screenresolutiontest.com/ on your phone and tell me the resolution reported there. Tx

Alfie Kirkpatrick [Developer] It is Z5 Compact. I went there and it shows 360 x 640 resolution. And for the browser viewport 360 x 512.
