## Review summary

Reviews praise TB2 for stability and training features but repeatedly cite a clunky UX, missing filtering/search capabilities, and persistent bugs. Users like the ease of creating circuits and the leaderboard, plus responsive support, yet want better UI, more filtering/logging options, and more reliable Bluetooth/hardware behavior. Several express nostalgia for the old app’s sorting/tracking features and coaching support, hoping for improvements or a return to that experience.

### Pros

- Stable and reliable for basic training use; no bugs or crashes reported.
- Easy to create and cycle through training lists and circuits.
- Leaderboard feature adds motivation and new training options.
- Responsive support and willingness to listen, with quick fixes and even reverting to the older app when requested.

### Cons

- Clunky, non-intuitive UI; the app feels hard to use and not user-friendly.
- Missing essential features like search/filtering for climbs and a sortable logbook; cannot filter by date or grade or view own created problems.
- Frequent bugs and glitches; resets required; issues like 'x did not load' on mac and random color lighting.
- Many users miss the older app due to sorting/tracking features and feel TB2 lacks these capabilities.
- Bluetooth connectivity issues and display problems (e.g., orientation/LED) hinder board usage.
