User Reviews

Users praise the app for its broad, Europe-wide library of crags/topos and its climb-logging capability, plus offline workarounds. However, they consistently report stability bugs, crashes, unreliable topos loading, frequent login/account friction, problematic code redemption with a subscription model, and data that is outdated or inconsistently available.

Pros

Extensive, Europe-spanning library of crags and topos.
Topos are a core, helpful feature for planning and navigation when they load.
Useful climb-logging feature for tracking attempts and routes.
Offline access via downloaded maps and screenshots when the network is poor.
Generally helpful for finding crags and planning climbs across regions.

Cons

Frequent bugs and crashes; performance and stability are major issues.
Code redemption often fails and the shift to a subscription model angered users who had purchased guides.
Topos and data are frequently outdated, incomplete, or fail to load properly.
Account creation, login, and ongoing authentication problems disrupt use.
Offline data/content reliability and updates can require repeated re-downloads and break caches.

Great app! Amazing that you can log routes on any crag! It definitely isn't the most streamlined app, but it works well enough

St*****, 2026-05-15

Great app overall, but I'm giving it 1 star for one major reason: offline functionality doesn't actually work. I bought and downloaded the Kalymnos guidebook specifically to use it without a connection -- which is the entire point of downloading something. When I got to the crag with no service, the app was completely useless. This is a climbing app. Your users are going to be in remote areas without signal. That's not an edge case, that's the core use case. Please fix offline support.
