is there any solution to fix/cover tiles chip?

after reno and move in things, found out so many small chips...some quite big like 4-5mm...

my tile is beige color with some white color...so i think it can be cover with white color ...

what things that can be use to cover/fix it?

Sure you use cement, or just putty? I use white cement and it really strong as cement. And apply a sealer on top too.

Caulk is just a term. You have Silicon and Acrylic. Acrylic, can be paint on, Silicon you can't. But silicon more lasting.
