User Reviews

Users see potential but report persistent flaws. Positives include usable topos/guidebook content on mobile, gym progress tracking, and offline downloads, plus an ad-free indoor-use experience. Recurrent negatives are a confusing UI, frequent crashes, weak search/discovery for grades or crags, login/authentication issues, and limited gym coverage (notably in the USA). These recurring issues overshadow otherwise useful features.
Pros
  • High-quality topos and up-to-date guidebook content on mobile
  • Helps track gym progress and logs climbs
  • Offline area downloads for use without internet
  • No ads in indoor gym mode (free for indoor use)
  • Browser/web version may offer a smoother experience
Cons
  • Poor UI/UX and extremely hard to navigate/learn
  • Frequent crashes and bugs with stability issues
  • Weak search and discovery: cannot search by specific grade or easily find crags/routes
  • Login/authentication problems and scattered sign-in errors
  • Limited gym/area coverage, especially in the USA, with few spots

The content and features are very useful the app however is unfortunately not well made. It’s buggy and there are syncing issues. Downloads are unreliable, sometimes showing complete but not working. It’s very frustrating when you download ahead of time just to get there and the download isn’t usable…

Downloaded because it’s the best guidebook for the Dolomites. Fantastic info for that; only recommendation is an in-app translation feature as that’s tricky to do. The issue is the inclusion of too many features for the subscription price. Training regimen, leaderboard, I don’t need these to just visit a new climbing area. Please break down the subscription model a bit, then the price might be worth it.
