Climbr is a private climbing-session logger for bouldering, sport, and trad climbers. Log every session without joining another social platform or building a public tick list. Climbr keeps the focus on your own training history: where you climbed, how it felt, what you sent, and what beta you want to remember next time. WHY CLIMBR - Fast session logging: date, duration, crag or gym, discipline, perceived effort, and beta notes. - Multi-scale grade entry: V-scale, Font, YDS, and French, with conversion built in. - Send styles for onsight, flash, redpoint, repeat, project, and attempt. - Personal records and progression for clean sends. - Searchable session beta notes for sequences, conditions, body cues, and gear reminders. - 100% on-device logbook via SwiftData. No accounts, no ads, no public feed. FREE Climbr includes unlimited session logging, grade conversion, beta notes, and the last 30 days of session history. CLIMBR PRO Climbr Pro is available as monthly and yearly auto-renewable subscriptions. Pro unlocks unlimited session history, grade-progression charts, advanced filters, and CSV export. DISCLAIMER Climbr is a private climbing journal. It is not a coaching service, training plan, or safety system. Always climb within your ability and follow your gym or crag's safety rules.
