Today in History & Dark Mode!

With the release of Chunks v2025.12.8 comes the 'Today in History' feature. Each day highlights a number of notable events from the date in history as well as biographies (either born on this day, or died on this day) of people that have influenced history.

It's a simple yet powerful addition to the ever-growing library of content in the Chunks app, allowing you to easily to discover moments in history that have had an impact on the world.

The feature can be reached either from the Home screen or via the Explore screen.

Secondly, as a feature that has been heavily requested since the release of the app, I've introduced dark mode. It follows the device's system setting and allows for a (hopefully) eye-strain-free experience of the app in low light, or just as an alternative viewing option based on your preference.

The app is live now in the App Store & Play Store. Of course, if you have any feedback regarding these features, or others, please write to hello@chunks.app or send feedback in the app.

Thanks,
Andy.
