Really nice features, still some bugs to iron

Love being able to check out my favourite walls.
Might be even better if there were a way to upload line pics, maybe I’ve just not seen that :)
Still some bugs - I experienced a few freezes today and needed to close n restart.

Love this app

Initially I was really sceptical of “ticking” problems indoors but now after using the app I am hooked.
The stats and info you get from the app are really valuable. However other benefits such as knowing right away when your favourite walls have changed circuits is incredibly useful too.
Wouldn’t be without it now and it certainly influences which walls I visit.

Amazing Response

The app would not work on my daughters phone as it running an older iOS version, she’s 14 and a keen climber. I emailed the developer expecting no response. Cas has exceeded those expectations considerably. Having established that it’s the older iOS that’s the problem, many developers would have just walked away. Cas has gone the opposite way and found the problem with the app when running on the older iOS version. Comms have been great and we now have been advised that the problem’s been located and a fix is imminent. Thanks Cas. Happy Climber.

Instant Crash on older iphone / ipad

The app was really great and working just fine until a few weeks ago. Now it insta crashes upon opening on both my Iphone 5S (I know it is old) and wife’s older model Ipad. I have tried all updates to IOS and app as well as a delete and reinstall without any success.

Interesting concept, mediocre implementation

Logging climbs is something I’ve always done manually.
I was expecting the option to say whether it was clean/dogged etc.
There are a few routes that have the wrong grading in the App and I can’t see a way to nominate them as wrong.
Also I’m never going to want to submit “video evidence” so give me the option to permanently skip it.

Great app to track your climbs

It’s great to be able to track progress. Also helps you choose routes that are more suited to your style and ability. Really easy to challenge yourself with something a bit harder too. My whole family uses this app so gives us a bit of competition as well.

Response from developer

Thanks you so much for your 5 star review :)

Highly recommend

As someone new to climbing, about two months, this app is great to see to what mI current grade, which means when going to other gyms I know for what to aim. Also great to keep track of the problems I’ve completed and for project managing. I’m sure there are other features that would be great and as I get better I’m sure I’ll think of them but the reason it’s four stars is because there are upcoming features not yet accessible which to me means an incomplete app. But I do thoroughly recommend.

Response from developer

Thanks for your great feedback. Keep an eye out for the 'Logbook' update, coming very soon!

Perfect bit of tech

This app really helps track my progress and helps me to understand where I need to develop. I’m often surprised looking at the data seeing where I’m improving of where I think I’m weak. But the data does make sense.
You need this app if you want to improve!

Great start, loads of scope to make it excellent

Love the plan view and being able to browse through the problems. Waiting in anticipation of the logbook think it will be a useful addition. Also (apologies if you can already do this) but filtering in problems by grade would be awesome and make it 5*. Keep up the good work 👍

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Currently you can only filter sports routes by grade, but we will be adding additional filtering options. We are currently gathering as much feedback as possible to ensure we build the right features for users such as yourself.
