Review summary

Mountain Project provides a rich, detail-rich database of climbs with photos, directions, and community updates, widely valued for planning trips and exploring new areas around the world. Reviewers repeatedly credit its breadth, beta, and practical climb information. However, two recurring pain points emerge: frequent login/access problems (including external account requirements) and weak search capabilities that hinder finding undownloaded areas or precise routes.
Pros
  • Extensive, detail-rich database of climbs with photos, directions, and community updates, great for planning trips.
  • Worldwide coverage with valuable beta; many reviewers call Mountain Project the go-to climbing app.
  • Rich route information and photos that aid navigation and decision-making.
  • Active community feedback and updates help keep routes and areas current.
Cons
  • Ongoing login/access problems, including requirement to use an external account (X/OnX) and login failures across updates.
  • Poor search functionality and offline area limitations, with users unable to search undownloaded areas and frequently relying on external web searches.

I wish I could leave a comment in the app for an area or route. This would help to ensure quick communication about missing or broken hardware, approach, and traffic.

totally frustrated every time I try to find either a particular boulder problem or area. why isn't there an option to search on a problem name, even if you don't know what area it is in?

The Wikipedia of climbing, so much useful information but be sure to use your own judgement and take everything with a grain of salt.

i can't login with my MP account, so that's stupid. functionality wise i can kinda look up details WHEN I HAVE A CONNECTION but seeing as how in the mountains connection is spotty i can't rely on it regularly.
