Didn't come up in my search
Google “Chalky Stix for iPhone”. Download the app. Looks like it could work, but I did not try it.

WIFE LIKES survivor, and I have to have a drink of two to get through that nonsense.

This is something that I could make if there is interest and nothing else exists.

I had chalkystick a few years ago. It was pretty good.

To be honest though I think since everyone had a smart phone with a built in nice camera, the drawing programs became way less popular than in the early 2000’s.

The couple apps I tried were also all either not scaled properly, or were 7’ tables. None of the modern ones are a true 9’ table.

Does chalky stix have a phone app?

I too could not find chalky sticks now. I checked my app history, and found these 2. I don't know if they still work, its been about 10 years since I tried either.

Edit, I found chalkysticks. It looks like it's web based? But they also link to an app in the first page of their website.


The web app direct link:

I wrote one years ago for Android, but it wasn't super fancy. but you could drag and drop to place the balls around the table to show layouts and save a screen shot.

Wouldn't take much work to extend it with the features that some of the web based apps have.

Here is a screen shot of it;

It would be neat if you could use image segmentation to automatically create a chart using a camera image.

The image processing for that is over my head. I am sure there are some people out there with a better skill set than me for this. I have trouble just recognizing any round object consistently.

Yeah, just Flutterize this and launch it again. Looks like most of the assets and work is done.
