Read full descriptionHide full description
Flashd is the bouldering and climbing tracker built for real sessions. Log every route with your grade, attempts, and whether you topped, flashed, or failed, then review your stats when the session ends. TWO TRACKING MODES Pick the flow that fits your session. Timed mode runs a built-in timer for every route so you can see exactly how long each send takes. Quick mode lets you tap to log routes without a timer, perfect for fast sessions or when you just want the count. SESSION STATISTICS After every session, see your topped percentage, flash rate, total points, and highest grade. Track your improvement across sessions with French (4A to 9A) and Hueco (V0 to V17) grading systems. CUSTOM GRADING SYSTEMS Climbing at a gym with its own colour or grade names? Create a custom grading system for your gym or yourself. Each custom grade maps to a French or Hueco equivalent, so your points and stats stay consistent no matter where you climb. SCAN ROUTES WITH AI Snap a photo of the wall and Flashd detects the routes for you, with grades and hold colours. Tweak anything the AI got wrong, then save the routes for your whole gym to log in one tap. EARBUD TRACKING Use your earbud buttons to log routes phone-free. Control your entire bouldering session without touching your phone. (Timed mode) ACHIEVEMENTS Unlock achievements as you climb. Hit milestones for sessions, flashes, grades, and more. GYM LOCATIONS Find nearby climbing gyms and attach sessions to a location so your history stays organised. RANKINGS Compare your grades, points, and flash rates with friends and climbers at your gym. See where you stand on the leaderboard. CLIMB WITH FRIENDS Add friends, share sessions, and see how your climbing stacks up. Free to download. Get on the wall.

GRAVITY — TRAIN THE NEXT STEP Gravity turns Streetlifting, Hand Balancing, and Flexibility into clear progression paths. Pick a practice, see the next useful milestone, and open one focused session instead of searching through workout lists. STREETLIFTING THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE Gravity’s current Streetlifting plan starts at five clean pull-ups. Assess your max, set training days, and follow bodyweight or weighted pull-up and dip programming that matches your starting point. Once earned, the 20-, 25-, and 30-rep milestones can be selected again, and today’s per-set target can be adjusted before you train. CLEAR, HONEST PROGRESSION Log the reps, added load, and effort you actually complete. Controlled completion moves the prescription forward; incomplete or harder-than-planned work holds the target. Progress on the path reflects recorded work—technique practice never invents reps or awards a skill automatically. BUILT FOR THE SESSION See exercises, sets, reps, loads, holds, rest ranges, and safety notes. Full-screen rest, hold, and EMOM timers stay on schedule when Gravity is backgrounded. Active workouts can recover after an interrupted session. THREE TRAINABLE PRACTICES • Streetlifting: bodyweight foundations through weighted pull-ups and dips • Hand Balancing: wall foundations, freestanding balance, and advanced preparation • Flexibility: structured hamstring, compression, and split preparation Calisthenics and Powerlifting appear as clearly marked previews while their complete training paths are still in development. LEARN AND REVIEW Use short guides for active recovery, sleep, fueling, body composition, hand care, technique, deloading, and competition preparation. Review your training history, best set, streak, weekly plan, and path progress. YOUR TRAINING, ACROSS DEVICES A Gravity account keeps completed workouts, programs, and progress synced. Local-first storage keeps the app useful through connection changes and syncs again when a connection returns. Optional local reminders follow your weekly plan. FIND A PLACE TO TRAIN Open the Parks map, search a city, or choose Find My Location to see nearby calisthenics parks. Location access is optional. FREE, NO ADS Gravity is free, with no ads, subscriptions, or in-app purchases. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No advertising tracking or data brokers. Technical diagnostics are limited and do not include session replay, screenshots, or tap capture. Set videos and profile photos stay on your device. Delete your Gravity account and associated cloud training data at any time in Settings. Strength training carries a risk of injury. Gravity provides general training information, not medical advice. Use appropriate equipment and technique, stop for pain, and seek qualified guidance when needed.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gravity at none against Flashd's 1. Gravity also leads on ads (none vs shown). Flashd's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
