Trying to sell more products
I was eager to download this app after getting my beastmaker 1000 for Christmas but am a bit disappointed.
One of the first things I did, which I think would be pretty common, was to do the benchmarks. Before each one it asks if you have the ‘motherboard’ (~$300). It doesn’t remember, and you have to say no for each test… Also, one of the benchmarks REQUIRED you to have the inserts that make the 40mm slot a 30mm slot. Imagine if on a moon board you had to buy premium holds to benchmark yourself.
The timer works well for repeaters.

Needs to have a actual clock
No clock to count down to the next hang only a blue bar that moves. It makes programs with longer rests near impossible to follow how can I tell how close I am to the next hang after 3 to 5 minute rests with a bar. Otherwise does it’s job well.
Not able to open app
Im unable to open the app. Its downloaded but when i try to open it it immediately crashes.
IOS 12.5.5 (16H62)

Can’t even sign up
I can’t even sign up to use the app, everything goes white after I enter my name, why do you even need account for this anyways?? seems a bit fishy.
Good app but sketchy behavior
The app copy's text from your clipboard, unfortunately sketchy for such a sick app. This is the tradeoff for a free app though, hopefully they change
Best hangboard app
Love this app, was looking for a simple hangboard timer and found so much more. I would happily pay for this app!
Best hangboarding app so far
I’ve tried several hangboarding apps, and I’ve stuck with this one the longest so far. Here’s some suggestions:
- Add some more workouts (or the ability to make your workouts public). Currently there’s <10 for a specific difficulty level and hangboard model.
- Ability to end a workout in the middle and still have what you’ve done count toward your stats. Now I just have to skip to the end and uncheck everything.
- Ability to see lifetime stats instead of just the current month
- [bug] The hang time metric counts the full workout time, not the actual hang time you did
- [bug] The charts at the end of the workout don’t work. It just shows an empty circle.

Improvements
Firstly I really like using this app I think they layout is really nice and it’s pretty easy to use.
However, there are some improvements to be made to existing features and maybe some additional features which could be added to make it even better.
When you are in a workout and the timer get close to the next rep of the exercise and instructs you which hand position you should be in the timer disappears which is annoying as the next time you see is 3,2,1.
An extra feature that would be really cool to have would be to add custom training equipment so for your own personal workouts you can change it up eg I have some 6mm edges and some extra slopers that would be really nice to integrate into my workout on the app.
Finally it was be really nice to make this a social kind of app where you can add your mates and see what workouts they’ve been doing etc kinda like Strava does. This would be really nice especially as most people have to train at home in this manner because of COVID.

Requires you to sign up to some website
Requires you to sign up to some website, which is totally unnecessary for the functionality.
Excellent app!
I really enjoy this app, it provides many training sessions from well known and certified coaches and climbing professionals. The app is really fast and smooth, and the design is great. I especially like the new timer feature which is just great and can be used for many types of workouts!
