It’s simple and intuitive to use with large visuals and good audio cues. Few things I could suggest to improve the app: 1. Ability to delete sets within a workout. It seems you can only edit but not delete 2. Ability to delete hangs, hold and hold types 3. Rest time limit to be uncapped. This is particularly big for me as the current app rest limit is capped at 20 sec which is fine for repeaters but for a strength program is way too short. These features should be relatively easy to implement. So hopefully the developer could accommodate these on the next release. Thanks and appreciate your great work! ### 5/5 — Hangboard! *2018-11-18, version 1.1* Helps plan workouts! ### 5/5 — Good for everything! *2018-10-21, version 1.1* This is the first app I have ever given a 5 star rating. Works well for exercises outside of hangboards too! Download this! ### 5/5 — Perfect app for climbing! *2018-09-19, version 1.1* Easy to use and does exactly what I need. ### 5/5 — Perfect for Hangboard Work *2018-09-13, version 1.1* Awesome way to organize and track hangboarding workouts. Not the app we deserve, the app we needed. ### 5/5 — Great app, perfect for climbers of all levels *2018-09-13, version 1.1* Fully functional app, allows me to customize my holds however I want. And it’s free! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sound doesn’t work?? *2020-09-18, version 1.7* Can’t figure out how to make sound work. It says it’s on but don’t hear anything ### 2/5 — Timer doesn’t keep going when you aren’t actively using app *2019-12-23, version 1.5* Timer stops counting down if you open another app. I usually have 3-4 min rests. I don’t want to just look at the timer. ### 3/5 — Rest first then hang? *2019-09-10, version 1.3* Maybe I’m not doing this right but why does it start with “rest” and then “hang”? Shouldn’t it start with hang and then rest? ### 3/5 — Awesome except I can't figure out how to get sound notifications! *2019-02-05, version 1.1* Fantastic, simple, but where is the sound?? I don't want to be looking at my phone to know when to stop a rep!! Am I missing something here? ### 4/5 — Could be improved *2021-10-15, version 1.7* Works well but the design is confusing and editing a workout can be really tedious. The beep is pretty quite but otherwise it’s a good app ### 4/5 — No-nonsense *2021-01-26, version 1.7* Simple app for simple workouts. No crashes. Decently customizable for all your Hangboard/planking/lockoff needs. ### 5/5 — Simple and easy to use. No drama *2023-04-09, version 1.7* It’s really easy to load up the app for the first time and start setting up your own workouts. Other apps can be a reyt faf to get used to. This was easy. No drama ### 5/5 — When you can’t climb… *2023-02-06, version 1.7* You hang. It’s really the simple things that keep you sharp. There aren’t and tricks to make you a better climber and you shouldn’t hurt yourself trying (especially not your fingers.) you can make your own workouts but the sample ones are pretty much as straightforward as you need. Short, sweet, simple, so effective. Tendon strength is not approached the same way as muscle strength and endurance is hard to replicate off of the wall. Use this app a few times a week and you won’t get left behind by your boulder buddies or your multi-pitch heroes! ### 5/5 — No ads! *2021-08-18, version 1.7* Like it! Thanks ### 5/5 — Beauty in simplicity *2021-05-07, version 1.7* Simple and effective, love it! ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Stellar app *2021-03-31, version 1.7* Would love an option to exceed 60 second reps if youre taking feature requests! ### 5/5 — Basic but effective and free *2020-07-02, version 1.7* I’m sure there are more extensive and user friendly apps, but this one does everything I need it to build and save workouts and it is free. Hard to find truly free and effective apps now a days! Thanks to the developers 🙏🏼 ### 5/5 — Simple and effective *2020-04-24, version 1.7* Sometimes simple is best. Wish the sounds were changeable. ### 5/5 — Simple a straightforward *2020-04-14, version 1.7* It’s easy to set up workouts and less complicated than a lot of the other hangboard apps I’ve used. Gets the job done. ### 5/5 — App functionality *2019-10-07, version 1.3* Absolutely love this app. I’ve always wanted an easy way to to make a customized climbing workout....surprised it took me so long to find this, but I’m sure glad I did! ### 5/5 — Good hang board app *2019-01-02, version 1.1* Does what it needs to do. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
