  • Great app and very helpful support!

    Delivers what is prommised. Love the integration with ukclimbing logbook. Switching between pages of a crag is sometimes a bit wobbly but otherwise 5/5, would send again.
  • Awesome

    This app is epic. What would make it better for a lot of climbers though is if you could organise your wish list to help you plan your climbs. Put onto folders maybe. And white your own notes on routes maybe. B

    Hi Dave, I'm glad you like the app. What you've described for wish lists sounds a lot like UKC ticklists. It's a nice idea so we'll have a think to see if we can incorporate them.
  • Great app, great guides

    The Rockfax app provides a useful, well presented and feature-rich digital version of Rockfax’s huge range of guidebooks. It also has lots of useful digital-only features such as location tracking (ideal when you’re trying to find your way to an unobvious crag) and a direct link to the UKC logbooks.

  • Great when it works

    Very useful app with loads of routes and crags, and easy to view topos. Log book is great and is the main benefit over using a book in my opinion.

    Only issue for me is most of the topos for stanage edge are missing pictures. Not sure if this is the same for everyone or a local issue for me, but either way it’s where I’ll be going regularly and not being able to see the photos on the topos makes it completely useless because it’s impossible to find the routes.

    Update:
    Support got in contact and solved the issue overnight. Great job!

    Well worth the subscription fee to be able to instantly look up any major crag wherever I may be rather than shelling out for a guidebook for single visits.

    Also great way of tracking my climbs including the dates, style of ascent and partners, then filtering/sorting based on grade etc. to see my progress.

    Hi there. We've had no reports of server issues, so maybe this was a one-off. Feel free to send me a support request from within the app, or at ios@rockfax.support and I'll figure out what the issue is.
  • Best climbing app

    Really impressed with the quality of the content, the presentation and the features.
