### 5/5 — Simple and easy to use

*2024-12-31, version 2.0*

Perfect for tracking problems during a climbing session.

### 5/5 — Simply beautiful

*2024-11-22, version 2.0*

A beautiful little app to keep track of your bouldering sends in a very simple uncluttered manner, which I just love. I love that it’s free and I love that I’m not getting bombarded with advertisements and paywalls! Everybody should be supporting developers like this.

### 5/5 — Simple and effective app for tracking progress!

*2024-08-19, version 1.0*

Love it!

### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted!

*2024-08-09, version 1.0*

Love that it’s just tracking. It’s basic in a perfect way. They didn’t over complicate it and super easy to use. You just record each climb and it shows what level, amount of attempts and when you send.

### 5/5 — Nice, simple tracking app

*2024-07-14, version 1.0*

This is a great little tool for keeping a track of your climbs without any advertisements or extra features that could clutter it. I’ve been using this for a very short time but think it will be very useful in the long run to keep track of everything. I had considered notebook but I think this will be faster and as I have my phone phone with most of the time anyway meet don’t have to carry anything extra.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed!

*2024-06-02, version 1.0*

I LOVE this app!!!! I needed something simple to keep track of my climbs and I finally found it. Thank you so much!!

### 5/5 — Best tracking app

*2023-05-24, version 1.0*

Probably one of my only reviews, shout out Gil for being the plug.

### 5/5 — Wonder

*2023-05-07, version 1.0*

Easy and simple to use I just wish you could change the colors of the grades in app

### 5/5 — Nice App

*2023-04-16, version 1.0*

It’s great. I’m a PM and am impressed in this. cheers.

### 5/5 — Totally what i need！

*2023-03-27, version 1.0*

This app takes little resource and delivers no ads! I use this to record my bouldering every time. Appreciate the developer! Thank you so much!

### 3/5 — Good concept, bad experience

*2025-05-26, version 2.0*

Good concept but on getting the app it felt confusing how to best use it and how it would help my climbing through the minimal features.

### 3/5 — Nice and simple but not efficient

*2023-08-10*

Great start to an app. Would like to see the ux improved. It’s annoying to keep tapping the buttons over and over again to select the grade and options you want, and you don’t want to be in your phone that long while climbing. Should have scroll selectors instead or something else.

**Developer response:** Hello, I am back to working on this and found this feedback interesting. Is it the grade or attempts button that is most annoying to you to keep pressing? Or are both equally frustrating?

I want to balance simple with efficient, but also intuitive. I totally agree, you don't want to be stuck on your phone the whole time. The current solution is simple and intuitive, but not super efficient like you said. So I am thinking through that. Thanks!

### 4/5 — Great App with Room for UI Improvement

*2025-09-16, version 2.0*

Hi this is an excellent FREE app for climbers looking to track their progress. Aside from a few quirks, I think everything is in order. I like how you included relevant climbing lingo which is huge for newer climbers. One problem I ran into (which I probably fat thumbed somehow) is I’ve somehow switched the grading scale for bouldering from V levels to Grade #. I can’t seem to go back and edit it. If you could help that’d be awesome. Thanks.

### 4/5 — Really good, one thing missing

*2025-01-26, version 2.0*

Hi, I really enjoy your app. Everything from the icon to the user friendly interface is awesome. One thing tho I’m missing is writing something to every route I did individually. At the moment you can only do it for the entire session. And if you really want to make a user happy happy integrate the scaling system 0-9. it’s used in every gym I go to and there’s no way I can correctly translate that to the V-scale or any other scale sadly. That be absolutely awesome. My friends are all using this app bc of my recommendation :))

### 4/5 — Photos

*2024-11-22, version 2.0*

Hi ! I just started using your bouldering app and it’s really useful. One thing that would be cool to add is being able to put pictures of the ones we accomplished! I think it could help/remind or just be cool to add a picture of the « current project »:) what you think of it ?

### 4/5 — Love the app but not a lot of functionalities

*2024-08-16, version 1.0*

I love the app it’s great for keeping track of your progress put I would like if the developer added more functionalities like a description of your boulder or that you can take a photo of the boulder and put it on the app, and other stuff that could make the app more useful for looking at your previous climbs. 

In conclusion the idea of the app is great!

### 4/5 — Simple and very useful

*2024-08-11, version 1.0*

After trying all the other climbing apps this one is the most useful and user friendly. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is I wish you could add notes to your climbs.

### 4/5 — Simply good

*2023-03-01, version 1.0*

Slick, simple and easy to use. Really liking the app. I wish I could create a custom difficulty scale for my gym, since they use color grades in wide ranges, such as 6B to 7A. That way there’d be a clear separation between indoor and outdoor grades.

### 4/5 — Awesome, but…

*2023-01-08, version 1.0*

I wish I could add a not attached to a send, or more importantly, to a climb I didn’t send. Maybe also session notes, like a general note for climbing on 1/3 if you want to track some other things.

### 4/5 — Needs a way to add custom grading

*2022-11-13*

My gym uses colours which don’t quite line up with the V system; would love a way to import or create my own grading system in the app to track climbs without having to guess their V grade

### 5/5 — Love logging my progress

*2026-05-17, version 2.1*

App is simple and easy to use. Love looking back a few weeks back and get reminded of the climbs I have sent.

There are some features that I hope to see in the future! Not sure where to leave feedbacks so I’ll leave them here.

An option to “resume” an attempt would be nice so if I gave up initially and come back to it, I can simply up the attempt counter or mark it is “I sent it!” instead of having to do a new entry

In additions to photos, what about videos? This can come in handy if someone asks me for betas and I can pull up my attempt from the app.

### 5/5 — Smaller Icon View

*2026-05-12, version 2.1*

First. Love the app and I’m a supporter! Second, with the new update is there a way to go back to the small icon view? On bigger days where I’m doing lots of climbs, I really liked seeing them all in one place as a collection. There used to be a toggle between the two views and I’m not seeing that anymore.

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-12-18, version 2.0*

Great app, satisfies my data driven mind.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-06-23, version 2.0*

I especially love the lingo tab (especially as a new climber) because memorizing the terms is pretty difficult.

### 5/5 — Literally no reason not to download it

*2025-06-17, version 2.0*

Amazing app- completely free with no ads. I accidentally deleted the app and lost all my history which sucked but it’s okay! It’s very simple, easy to use, and doesn’t try to sell you any courses or anything. Might be nice to be able to attach photos or videos to differentiate different climbs, because I often can’t remember when I’m looking back on it. I’m also not sure if something counts as a flash if I couldn’t get it last session but get it first try in the new session, but that’s a personal issue. Thank you Gil!

### 5/5 — Easy tracker

*2025-04-10, version 2.0*

A simple way to track climbs and notes on indoor sessions

### 5/5 — An app for every boulderer

*2025-04-08, version 2.0*

Absolutely love the app and it’s definitely been a factor in my sticking to climbing! Hoping for an update soon - I can no longer access my history after passing without the app closing itself. Thank you for making this

### 5/5 — Climbing/travel

*2025-03-26, version 2.0*

I’ve been looking for an app that would allow me to track progress across several different gyms. I travel for a living and this app is the closest I’ve seen. Would be cool to be able to title separate climbs based on the gym name.

### 5/5 — Overall fantastic

*2025-03-10, version 2.0*

Although I have only been using it for a bit, it is great to see all the climbs that you’ve done.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-01-01, version 2.0*

Great app so far! I enjoy tracking my progress, but it NEEDS a feature that lets you attach pictures and videos to the climbs so you can go back and review them. Maybe even share them with friends!
