Whether you are bouldering at your local gym, training on sport routes, or celebrating a memorable send, Stone helps you capture every route, attempt, session, and memory — making your progress visible. - Quick Climbing Logs Organize your sessions by date and record route names, grades, colors, completion status, attempts, locations, and notes.

Stone syncs workout data such as heart rate and calories, so you can stay focused on your next climb instead of your phone. - Capture Every Attempt Add photos and videos to your routes, whether you sent them or are still projecting. Import, organize, edit, and download your media to review movement, analyze performance, or share your best moments. - See Your Long-Term Progress Review your training calendar, statistics, trends, and heatmaps to understand your climbing frequency, volume, and grade progression. Turn your sessions into clear training summaries and see how far you've come. - Organize Routes & Your Climbing Journey Create custom collections for projects, favorite routes, and training goals. Explore your climbing history through locations and gyms, gradually building your own climbing map. - Manage Gym Passes Track punch cards, memberships, prices, expiration dates, and remaining visits.

Every wall tells a story. Every climb leaves a mark. StoneMonkey is built for climbers who want to remember more than just their sends. Take a photo of any climbing wall, and let AI detect the climbing holds. Create routes in seconds instead of marking every hold by hand, then record every attempt, project, send, repeat, and beta—all in one place. Follow your progress over time, revisit unfinished projects, and build a complete history of your climbing journey. See newly created problems at your gym, share beta with fellow climbers, exchange ideas, and stay connected with your local climbing community. Whether you’re climbing your first V3 or chasing your next V10, StoneMonkey helps you capture every route, every move, and every milestone. Keep the story. Leave your mark.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StoneMonkey at none against Stone's 3. StoneMonkey also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). Stone's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs weekly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
