Asked A Lot

Something here doesn’t match my app.

These guides follow the newest version of Chalky. Update it in the App Store and the buttons will match.

Is Chalky free?

Yes. No ads either.

Do I need an account?

Not to find a bar or keep score. You sign in for friends, league practice and saving your games to the cloud.

Which games can I score?

Cricket, 301 and 501, for up to four players.

How do I score a double or a triple?

Use the two-dot key for a double and the three-dot key for a triple.

Does it work without signal?

Keeping score and Quick brackets do. The map, bar tournaments and league import need a connection.

Can I play when nobody else is around?

Yes. New Match › Play solo gives you bots at four levels, your friends’ ghosts and The House.

A bar is missing from the map.

Add it from Find Boards. It shows as reported until someone checks the board.

Is there sound?

No. Chalky is built for loud bars, so it buzzes in your hand instead.

Does it work on iPad and iPhone Duo?

Yes. On a Duo you can score folded, open, or stood up on the table.

Is there an Android version?

Not yet. Chalky is for iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo.

How do I move my games to a new phone?

Settings › Back up everything on the old phone, then Settings › Import matches or a backup on the new one.

How do I reach a person?

Email brian@coasterlogic.com, or use Settings › Report a problem in the app.
