Go
Can I play a stone inside an area my opponent has surrounded?
Several experienced players agree; no official ruling.

Yes. Any empty point is legal as long as the stone or its group will have a liberty, or the move captures something. The rules do not define territory as off-limits; whether the move is worthwhile is a separate matter, and an app that forbids it is buggy.
