## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I don’t want an account

*2026-07-07*

Update2: Or with one. 

Update: the app is suddenly completely unusable without an account. 

I downloaded this because I don’t need my ticks published or anything. I like that I can use the board at all, but dislike that it refuses to log data locally.

### 2/5 — Pretty ok

*2026-06-04*

This app is pretty good compared to the old kilter app, and definitely Some complaints would be the disconnect button not working, not having a built in auto disconnect service, and the strangeness of the session feature with others. It doesn’t seem to work very well, and you can’t search for new climbs without automatically putting them up on the wall. If these things got fixed it would probably be a five star app.

**Developer response:** We agree the old 1.2 app had some weird quirks due to it being a web app in a app jacket. We completely rewrote the app to be native, and use liquid glass ui for the app. Lets us know if things have improved for you

### 3/5 — I don’t want an account

*2026-05-04*

I downloaded this because I don’t need my ticks published or anything. I like that I can use the board at all, but dislike that it refuses to log data locally.

### 4/5 — Great progress. Please add circuit and timer features!

*2026-07-01*

I would love to see a timer feature added that enable auto-advancing between problems (eg cycle through a playlist at set intervals) Eventually a “route” feature would be amazing to create longer problems with holds that progressively light up for a set amount of time then turn off (enabling longer circuits around the board)

### 4/5 — WAYYYY Better Than The New Kilter App

*2026-05-07*

Honestly, I would’ve walked away from the Kilter if not for this app. You can actually find the climbs you want and you can upload your data yourself within seconds rather than waiting ages for Kilter to do it. The only thing I’m struggling with is adding to lists. They’re on my profile but not there when I want to add a climb. Other than that, it’s great.

**Developer response:** We should have the playlists bug fixed, you should now be able to add climbs to lists from the climbs page. Theres a short left to right swipe that does it, as well as through the ellipses climb actions drawer

### 5/5 — Bluetooth fixed!

*2026-07-10*

Thanks so much for fixing iPhone Bluetooth on the Kilter Board. Works great now! 

How can I support / give back?

### 5/5 — User friendly

*2026-06-24*

Marco stepped into the gap after Aurora Kilter debacle and not only produced a usable app but a superior product.   He has proven to be responsive to feedback with any glitches by rapidly addressing them.   This app facilitates community by making it easy for a crew to use during a session. Best thing I can say about it.

### 5/5 — awesome!

*2026-06-19*

incredible alternative to the kilter app

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2026-06-03*

Great app that you can use with Kilter, Tension, Moon and I believe other boards. No more need for multiple apps, plus the new kilter app is horrible so kudos to this team!!!

### 5/5 — THANK YOU!

*2026-05-16*

Thank you for making this app, it’s so good and it has all the old routes

### 5/5 — great alternative to the horrible kilter board app

*2026-04-12*

a much better alternative, the new kilter board app has 0 climbs and is barely functional. this has constant updates, all the past climbs, and makes board climbing a lot more fun for me
