Rock Climbing Log & Tracker

Read full description

One climbing logbook for every send — bouldering and roped, indoors and out, at any gym or crag. Log the climb, pick the grade in the system you know, and watch your pyramid climb. Then let AI turn your sessions into a training plan. No feed to scroll, no gym you have to belong to — just your record, your grades, and your progress. Everything is private and on-device, working offline whether the gym has signal or the crag has none. Switch gyms, travel, or move outside for the season and your logbook comes with you. No account, nothing to sync before you log a climb. LOG EVERY SEND IN SECONDS • Record boulders and roped routes: name, grade, attempts, and outcome — flash, send, or project • Tag each climb with wall angle (slab, vertical, overhang, roof) and style (crimps, slopers, pockets, pinches, dynos, heel/toe hooks, compression, and more) • Log indoor gym or outdoor crag sessions with area names, session length, and a self-rated fatigue score • Pin outdoor sessions to a location so you remember where that project lives • Unlimited sessions and sends — always free EVERY GRADE SYSTEM, CONVERTED LIVE • Bouldering: V-scale and Fontainebleau (Font) • Routes: YDS, French, and UIAA • Log in whatever system you think in and read your history in whatever you prefer — every climb converts instantly, from VB up to V17 and 5.5 up to 5.15d SEE YOUR PROGRESS • Home dashboard with total sessions, sends, and your hardest boulder and route • Send pyramid for boulders and routes — watch it fill in and shift up • Flash rate, angle breakdown, and volume-by-week trends • Spot the grade where you stall PROJECTING BOARD A project is a hard climb you work across many sessions. Track it properly: • Log every attempt session with your high point and notes • Keep beta — moves, sequences, rest positions • Follow the whole attempt history from first touch to the send TRAINING TIMERS Structured protocols with built-in work/rest timers — hangboard repeaters, max hangs, campus ladders, limit boulders, ARC endurance, and mobility. AI TRAINING PLAN (PRO) Generate a personalized multi-week plan built from the last few weeks of your own log — the grades you attempted, the angles and styles you climbed, and how tired you felt. Grounded in your real sessions, not a generic template. AI WEAKNESS ANALYSIS (PRO) Tap analyze for a short, concrete read on the patterns in your log — angle bias, style gaps, flash rate — with specific drills to close them. It reads your own data to find the gap you can't see. FREE VS PRO Free includes unlimited logging, live grade conversion, indoor and outdoor sessions, your send pyramid, one project, and the starter timer. Pro unlocks: • AI training plan built from your own log • AI weakness analysis • Unlimited projecting board • Full analytics — angle breakdown and weekly volume • The complete training-protocol library • Export your entire log as CSV • No ads Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription. Restore anytime; prices shown before you buy. IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ Rock Climbing Logbook is a personal logbook and training aid. It is NOT instruction and NOT a substitute for a qualified instructor, guide, or proper safety training. Climbing is inherently dangerous and can result in serious injury or death — this app does not make it safer. You are responsible for your own safety, equipment checks, and partner checks. The timers, AI plan, and weakness analysis cover fitness and skill progression only — never belay, anchor, rope, or outdoor-hazard advice. For anything related to safety, consult a certified instructor.

LapTAR

Read full description

LapTAR turns your phone into a lap timer that coaches. It times every lap on GPS, shows the live gap to your own fastest possible lap, and tells you which corner — and which part of that corner — cost the time. Measured, not generated. Every verdict comes from your car's own numbers on that lap: its grip, its braking, its power, on the line you took. No AI language model writes the advice; the same fault always gets the same words, and nothing is invented to fill a silence. TIME EVERY LAP Pair a RaceBox or Dragy GPS receiver over Bluetooth and drive. The track is recognised from where you are, the start/finish line is already drawn for the circuits in the library, and you can draw your own for a kart track or a hillclimb. THE GAP THAT MATTERS The delta on screen is not to your best lap. It is to your optimal lap — a physics simulation of what your car has proven it can do, on the best lines you have driven — so you are always chasing a time within your reach. CORNER BY CORNER Every corner is scored in four phases — braking, entry, apex and exit — against that optimal. Lights show where you gained and where you lost; the numbers sit underneath for later. A CO-DRIVER IN YOUR EAR Real-time voice coaching. Pick a corner and it is called through on every lap — "Next right. On my call." then brake, turn, power, each word timed to land on your optimal lap's own point. The corners you leave to the coach get the fix before — "Next left. Brake 30 metres later" — and better, worse or the same after. Rather see it? The calls can fill the screen as big coloured panels. On days when timing is not allowed, coach only keeps every time off the screen and out of the voice. KARTS TOO Pick the kart — brand, model, engine — and the corners, braking points, optimal lap and coach follow how a kart is driven: the braking point first, then the turn. TRACK LEADERBOARDS Your laps are private. Share one by link, and a friend with LapTAR can compare against it, or publish it to the track's leaderboard and see where it ranks: among all cars, in its class (estimated from the car's power, weight and tyres), or among karts with the same engine. Official Time Attack event results are on the boards too. Your rank shows on the session and on the Timer home, and you can compare your corners with the laps published there that day. ANALYSE IN THE PADDOCK Speed, delta and g traces per corner, laps drawn over the track on satellite imagery, and trends across sessions. The surface, setup sheet, tyres and alignment of every session stay with it. VIDEO OVERLAY AND ENGINE DATA Export a lap as a data overlay for your onboard video. Add a Bluetooth LE OBD adapter for RPM, throttle and more. Practising at home? LapTAR takes Assetto Corsa telemetry straight from the game. FREE, AND LAPTAR PRO Until the end of June 2027, every account has LapTAR Pro, free. After that, your first track day is on Pro, all day; then Free records the first ten minutes of each session, or the first five timed laps when those take longer, with the coach on one corner a lap. Leaderboards, lap links, karts and importing are always free. LapTAR Pro, an optional in-app purchase (monthly or lifetime), records the whole session, remembers the track (best ever lap as the live reference, trends, other days' laps), coaches up to four corners a lap and calls your chosen ones through, and adds clean, transparent and 4K overlays, advanced OBD and export to other apps' formats. A free account is required — just an email and a password. LapTAR Pro Monthly is an auto-renewing subscription: it renews each month until cancelled, and can be cancelled any time in your App Store account settings at least 24 hours before the period ends. LapTAR Pro Lifetime is paid once. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://timeattack.run/privacy
