what's new in chalk since launch (mostly from your feedback)

thank you to everyone who followed and upvoted chalk on launch day. a lot of you tried it and told us what broke. here's what changed since:

on your phone: chalk works properly on phones now. tabs along the bottom, and boards open readable instead of zoomed out.

on the mac: ask about anything on your screen and say "show me", and chalk draws a board beside the answer. put it away into the notch, bring it back, or keep it. circle part of your screen and it looks closely at just that. say "work me through it" and it goes step by step. (in summary, it's a lot smarter, cooler and "tutorer" than ever before!)

nothing you type gets lost: one of you lost a flashcard deck halfway through. flashcards and quizzes now save as you type, so closing the tab doesn't lose them.

your stuff, your call: delete boards, courses, pages and materials. share or download them from the ⋯ menu. delete your account from settings.

smaller things: web pages can open the mac app directly, and visitors in nigeria see prices in naira.

a heads-up about the mac app: it isn't notarized by apple yet, so the first time you open it, macos blocks it and asks for one extra step in system settings (privacy & security › open anyway). shows exactly how. it's for macs with apple chips. i'll update this thread when notarization lands.

next up: a notarized mac app and a windows version. join the windows waitlist here -

if you tried chalk and it didn't click, i'd love 15 minutes with you. as a thank you, you'll get 50% off your first payment (i'd genuinely appreciate anyone that reaches out, might throw in a +1month extra + the 50% off your first payment. i genuinely value all the feedback i can get - and i also just love talking to users too ;)).

book here -

what should chalk teach you next? i read every reply.
