Really bad..
This app should be simple and straightforward. Sorry but since the new upgrade:
- all my downloaded content is lost
- I had to log in and out several times and although I had paid content, the app was saying I need a premium code to access MY content
- app crashes regularly
- app intermittently says I need premium code for my paid content
Sorry..terrible.
I need an app that i can trust when I go to a crag with already downloaded content offline. Only to regularly find out without internet in the crag that app crashes and asks me to log in which is impossible without internet. Useful only when it works. Useless all other time which is a LOT a lot of timeShow lessDeveloper Response
Hello, I confirm all your purchased content is still associated with your account and can be accessed without a paid subscription. You can download your content at any time for offline use. Please contact us directly at support@vertical-life.info to solve any technical issues. Best regardsPlease give me my guidebook back
With the latest app update, I no longer have access to the topos and the digital download I paid for. Very disappointed and feel stolen from. Please reinstate the Yosemite Valley topos.Developer Response
Hello, you can find your unlocked guidebook and crags by going to the My Content section in the app. Unfortunately, the author of the Yosemite Valley guidebook chose to remove their content from the app. We're working on getting other content from the region in the app soon. Stay tuned.Money grab
A guidebook that I bought was made into a subscription that will expire.
The new navigation is choppy even on an iPhone X, and doesn’t fix long-standing bugs (you lose your place in a sector after viewing a problem)zDeveloper Response
Hello, Moving towards a subscription-based approach will allow guidebook authors to constantly add and update topos in the app. You will get free content updates to your premium topos for a period of 3 years. We would appreciate receiving more detailed feedback on the issues you found on your iPhone. Please send us an email to support@vertical-life.info. Best regardsGreat App
If you climb and your gym or craig is on this app - you wont regret getting it.Developer Response
Venga! More gyms and crags are being released weekly!Decent
Like many said navigation of the app is extremely unintuitive. I just downloaded the app and the app tutorial was very short and didn’t cover much, but a good app shouldn’t need a tutorial.
One thing that sticks out to me is the headers of the page just kind of blend in, it took me 15 minutes to find the list of Boulders in my gym because when I clicked “topos” I did not even see there was a header that said “Boulders” that I had to switch to.
The training programs although a little quirky sometimes due to the automation are pretty awesome, it’s nice on a day I need a little more motivation to just be told what to climb and when.
I’ve been waiting for a mountain project replacement, mountain project could be soooo much better, but getting people to do the initial switch will be tough.
Good luck.Show lessDeveloper Response
Thank you for your comment. We are working on an app redesign that should be released soon. However, we appreciate any feedback you might have. Please send us your thoughts here: https://x.zlag.it/service_desk Best regards, George👍
Really good app would be more useful if could define the boulder routes more as if a wall has two of the same colour can be difficult to know which is whichGreat app!! Must have for climbers
This app shows the potential that apps can have. I think that with some more support and work this app can really improve the community around climbing. Whether or not you train by yourself or you enjoy climbing with friends on the weekend I think this app has a lot of potential to make that experience more enjoyable.Show lessDeveloper Response

My indoor gym just added this, and it’s nice for tracking routes I’ve done. It will be much better if more people actually start using it and adding comments.
As for outside climbs - mountain project is still the go-to app.Potential held back by bad design
It clearly has a lot of features and functionality that could be leveraged in really interesting ways. However it’s incredibly frustrating to use because the design and navigation are horrendous. I hope the developers invest in some good designers and do some user research on the main workflows.Developer Response
