My Chats: finding your past work
My Chats lists everything you've made in MicroChat — programs, games, and tutorials — newest first. Click My Chats in the left-hand menu.
Reading the list
Each row shows:
- Last Request – the last thing you asked, so you can recognise the chat.
- Type – a coloured tag: Code (green) for micro:bit programs, Arcade (orange) for games, Tutorial (purple) for tutorials.
- Last Active – when you last worked on it.
- An arrow at the end. Click anywhere on the row to open it.
Opening an old chat
Click the row. The whole conversation comes back, and so does the program — the blocks appear on the right, ready for MakeCode, Explain, or more changes.
One thing to know: the Download button is greyed out until you make a change in that chat. Ask for any small tweak (or just "rebuild this") and Download comes back to life.
Starting something new
The buttons across the top start a fresh chat of each kind: New Code, New Code Session, New Tutorial, New Arcade, New Arcade Session.
What isn't listed
- Chats with the Dashboard helper aren't kept here — they're for quick questions and directions.
- Students' chats live inside their session, not in My Chats. Open the session to see them.
