### 2/5 — S

*2025-10-27*

Every time I go to measure my weight before a workout the app crashes. Will update star review when fixed

### 2/5 — Reliability problems

*2025-02-03*

I wish In could say I love this app, I nearly do, but crashing mid-session is just one of the unacceptable reliability problems it has. Feels rushed out, needs finishing.

### 2/5 — Hmm

*2023-07-10, version 1.5.6*

Acc setup not working, after clicking through first and last name page goes blank. Have tried everything to fix

### 2/5 — App screen size not optimized for iPhone SE 2

*2023-04-10*

The content of this app is awesome, but unfortunately it’s not optimized for iPhone SE 2, so I’m unable to access my settings to make changes as my strength progresses. The settings gear wheel is just off the screen on the profile page.

### 4/5 — Not perfect but good.

*2023-01-15*

There is a LOT more that this could do, especially for the motherboard users. But it’s a solid app, just waiting for some more if possible.

### 4/5 — Great app but could use improvements

*2022-09-04*

This app is amazing. It is easy to use and there are plenty of interactive features. The main issue i had was that there were just not enough available workouts. Using the search filter i could find no novice workouts and no workouts below intermediate for the beastmaker 2000. I think more workouts could be added considering this is the official beastmaker app. Again amazing app would recommend.

### 2/5 — Trying to sell more products

*2021-12-29*

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.

### 3/5 — Needs to have a actual clock

*2021-10-20, version 1.1.1*

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.

### 4/5 — Improvements

*2020-11-13*

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.

### 1/5 — Requires you to sign up to some website

*2020-08-23*

Requires you to sign up to some website, which is totally unnecessary for the functionality.

### 4/5 — Total Beginner

*2020-05-03*

I’ve been climbing a while but lockdown has forced indoor training. I’ve got a Metolius board but this works just fine. Clear and simple workouts, could maybe do with some more graphic displays of your workouts, but a really good start, look forward to future updates. 💪

### 1/5 — Still busted

*2026-01-30, version 2.0.7*

I thought maybe they’d fixed the log in since the last guy wrote a review, apparently not, still busted.

### 1/5 — Works Well When It Works, Expect No CS at All

*2026-01-16*

App functions as expected (no option to change kg to lb though), but when it doesn’t expect no response from customer service and hope that it fixes itself

### 1/5 — Не работает, тормозит

*2025-10-04*

Ну собственно ваше приложение - супер плохое . Наймите хоть одного программиста чтоль . А то это делал видимо плотник какой-то или грузчик

### 1/5 — Old app was better

*2025-04-04*

The old app was better. This one has annoying sounds for star & stop, is filled with ads for their $350 accessory, and none of the timers are adjustable. Negative stars.

### 1/5 — Requires too much information

*2022-12-29, version 1.5.0*

I had to sign up with an email address and then they wanted personal info like full name, date of birth and even my location. Just for some fingerboard workouts? Very suspicious. Deleted without signing up.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-05-07*

Tried several times and the app doesn’t go past the login page

### 1/5 — Bring back the good old beast maker app!!!

*2022-04-14*

Over complicated hangboard app! Bring back the good old beast maker app!!! I have selected which board I have yet the app will still push workouts that are for the other board!

### 1/5 — Not able to open app

*2021-10-09, version 0.7.12*

Im unable to open the app. Its downloaded but when i try to open it it immediately crashes.

IOS 12.5.5 (16H62)

### 1/5 — Can’t even sign up

*2021-09-11*

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.

### 1/5 — Good app but sketchy behavior

*2021-04-12, version 0.4.2*

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

### 5/5 — Very cool bias measurements

*2023-09-29*

The app with the motherboard allows you to check inbalances between right and left arm, I found this to be a very useful feature when following workouts!

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2022-05-09*

Grippy just keeps getting better. It works really well with Griptonite. It’s fully featured while remaining super easy to use. It allows you to focus on your training during a session then analyse it later and even reminds you if you’ve missed a few sessions. What’s not to love.

### 5/5 — Best hangboard app

*2021-01-20*

Love this app, was looking for a simple hangboard timer and found so much more. I would happily pay for this app!

### 5/5 — Best hangboarding app so far

*2020-11-15*

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.

### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2020-05-25*

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!

### 5/5 — Improvement

*2020-05-05*

Nice upgrade form the Beastmaker app - only quibbles are that playing music in the background (Spotify) is stopped when the app workout begins - if this could be fixed (I’m sure it will!), will be a great app for the hangboard

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review. I'm happy to be able to tell you that we have just put an update live today, that keeps background music playing during your workout. We would love you to try it out :)

### 5/5 — Good hangboarding app

*2020-05-03*

Right now it’s geared more towards those with a beast master, but you can make your own workouts so the timing features can obviously be used for any board. Got some workouts made by coaches which is cool as well.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2020-05-02*

A perfect compliment to any Beastmaker hangboard. Sleek design and good social elements have completely changed how I train.

### 5/5 — This has just changed the way I train

*2020-05-02*

This has just changed the way I train at home. So handy now that all the walls are closed! Really really useful app, I can find workouts with some actual coaches and use them with my beastmaker

### 4/5 — Great app has some room for improvements

*2023-12-24*

Really like the app I only have the 1000 series but there are still plenty of workouts for just that and nice bit of data tracking and the workouts themselves are really nice. The UI feels a little odd and a friends feature would kinda be cool. But definitely would recommend!
