CHALK HELP

How can we help?

Master your season with the ultimate gymnastics tracker.

What is Chalk and how do I get started?

Chalk is the ultimate gymnastics score tracker designed to help you master your season. Simply create an athlete profile, add your meet name and date, enter your scores for Vault, Bars, Beam, and Floor, and Chalk automatically calculates your All-Around total. You can add up to 2 meets for free with the option to upgrade to Pro for unlimited meets, multiple athletes, and cloud sync.

How do I add a meet and enter scores?

Go to the Calculator tab and tap the + button to start a new meet. Fill in the following:
  • Meet Name - e.g., "State Championship"
  • Date - When the meet took place
  • Level - Select from Level 1-10, Xcel, Elite, or NCAA
  • Division (optional) - e.g., "Beginner", "Advanced"
  • Scores - Enter each apparatus score (Vault, Bars, Beam, Floor)
  • Start Values (optional) - Adjust if different from 10.0

Your All-Around score will calculate automatically!

What is the "Road to 40" calculator?

As you enter scores during a live meet, Chalk calculates exactly what average you need on the remaining events to hit major All-Around milestones (32.0, 34.0, 36.0, 37.0, 38.0, 39.0, and 40.0). If a milestone becomes mathematically impossible, it automatically greys out so you can stay focused on delivering your best performance. This feature helps you mentally track your progress in real-time!

How do I track meet placements?

After entering scores, tap the Placements button to record how you placed:
  • Event Placements - Record 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place for each apparatus (Vault, Bars, Beam, Floor)
  • All-Around Placement - Enter your overall placement
  • Medal Display - Medals (🥇🥈🥉) appear on your Chalkboard if you placed in the top 3

Placements are displayed on your meet Chalkboard and season summary!

Can I hide medal icons? CUSTOMIZABLE

Absolutely! We know medal icons aren't for everyone. In the Placements modal, you'll find a 🏅 toggle in the top-right corner that lets you turn medal icons on or off.

This preference applies app-wide and affects:

  • All meet cards in your History
  • Individual Chalkboards (meet view)
  • Season Chalkboards
  • Everything else in the app

Your preference is saved automatically, so it persists even after you close the app!

What is the Chalkboard and how do I use it?

The Chalkboard is a beautiful, shareable image of your meet that displays:
  • Your athlete name, meet name, and date
  • Your All-Around score in large, eye-catching text
  • Individual event scores (Vault, Bars, Beam, Floor)
  • Level and division information
  • Medal indicators if you placed in the top 3

After saving a meet, tap View Chalkboard to see it, then Share to post it on social media or send to family and friends!

Can I track multiple athletes at once?

Yes! Tap the athlete name at the top of the main screen to open the Athlete Menu. From there, you can:
  • Add new profiles - Create separate profiles for each child
  • Edit names - Update athlete information anytime
  • Switch between athletes - Quickly toggle to view different gymnasts' data

Note: Free version allows 1 athlete; Chalk Pro allows unlimited athletes.

What does the Season Stats show?

Go to the Stats tab to see a comprehensive overview of your season:
  • Season All-Around Average - Your average AA score across all meets
  • Meet Count - Total number of meets logged
  • Event Trends - Visual chart showing your performance across Vault, Bars, Beam, and Floor
  • Season Chalkboard - Share your entire season summary with a beautiful image
  • Personal Bests - Track your highest scores on each apparatus and all-around

What are Personal Best notifications?

Chalk automatically tracks lifetime highs for each athlete. When you save a meet score that beats a previous record for Vault, Bars, Beam, Floor, or All-Around, the app displays a special celebration notification. It's our way of helping you mark and celebrate those milestone achievements!

How do I edit or delete a meet?

In the History tab, look at the bottom left on any meet card to find edit and delete options. You can:
  • Edit - Tap to modify scores, placement info, or meet details
  • Delete - Tap to remove the meet from your history

Changes are saved instantly and synced to cloud if you're on Chalk Pro!
