Boardsesh is now available in Italian. KNOW WHEN YOU’RE LIGHTING THE WALL A tap shows a climb without lighting it, so browse freely. “Put on board” lights it and you drive the wall: every climb you pick lights too, until the time you set in Settings runs out (45 seconds to start with). Swipe “Put on board” left to drive with no end; tap “You are driving the wall” to stop. Want the board free for the next climber? Turn on “Disconnect Bluetooth when driving ends”. iPad and iPhone Duo: more room for the board On iPad, your climbs get the whole screen and the climb on the wall sits in a mini player at the bottom. Tap it to open the player. In landscape, the board sits beside Up next, your logbook and beta. Mount an iPad by your board and open Wall display from the mini player to show the climb full screen, big enough to read from the mat. Open your iPhone Duo and the board sits beside your list. Build a workout on an open Duo and see the planned climbs next to your blocks. Choose two columns for the Climbs list when there's room on iPad. Pick the mini player's buttons in View options, log a send without opening the player, and reach Favourite, Playlist and Share from its menu on wide screens. YOUR REST TIMER ON THE LOCK SCREEN Your rest countdown shows on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. A soft tick plays in the last seconds and a tone when rest ends, even with your phone on silent. WORKOUTS IN BLOCKS Build a session out of blocks: warm up, then a pyramid, then volume. Add a block mid-session, give each block its own climb filters, and see where you are at a glance. Workouts pick climbs you haven't sent first, can skip what you've sent or tried, and can fill from your Sent or Liked climbs. Mark Fell or Sent from the mini player. Your session recap keeps your workout blocks, reps and results together. PLAY FROM THE LIST YOU TAPPED The player shows which list you're climbing from, and swiping stays on that list, from your logbook and sessions to profiles and similar climbs. Playlists play without touching your queue. Swipe a climb in any list to play it next or last. MORE WAYS TO MAKE IT YOURS - Sort any playlist by difficulty, newest added, rating or shuffle. Liked, Five Stars, Projects and setter pages sort and filter too. - Climbs has its own tab. Tap it again for Filters and name search. On iPhone, Filters opens at half height and looks like iOS Settings. - Choose which sections show on Home and in what order, and whether the app opens on Home or Climbs. - Settings is down to six pages, with your timers in one place. - Log a send at a different angle from the one on the wall. - Get notified about comments on your sessions, climbs, playlists, boards and gyms. FIXES FOR YOUR NEXT SESSION - Your logbook, likes and playlists work with no signal, and downloaded boards no longer download again every week. - Board scans find MoonBoards and newer Kilter boxes, closest first. Boardsesh asks for Bluetooth at your first scan, not at launch. - Swiping down closes the player again. Lit holds stay visible while you browse. - At multi-board gyms, connecting follows the board your current climb is on. The board light button shows whether it's lit, connecting or off, including when a crewmate turns it off. - Mirrored climbs keep their orientation in your logbook and queue history. - Delete several logbook entries in a row, or a climb's grouped entries for one day. - Climbs you unlike leave Liked straight away. - Better VoiceOver and large text support. Free, no ads, open source.

SPRAY WALLS: YOUR WALL IN BOARDSESH Add a photo of your home wall or your gym's spray wall, review the detected holds, and start setting boulders. Queue climbs, save them to playlists and log your sends. No LEDs needed. Keep a wall private or share it with your crew by link or QR code. Reset your wall while keeping its old climbs and sends archived. Download a wall to keep its photo, holds and climbs available with no signal. On iPad, use Apple Pencil to mark holds. YOUR CREW AND YOUR NEXT GO Find your crew's live sessions on Home. Open a climb to see logs from people you follow alongside your own, and follow setters to see their new climbs in your crew feed. Set a rest interval after each logged climb, or climb on a fixed timer. Turn on automatic queue advance and keep Boardsesh open between goes. Use Play next to put a climb straight after the one on the wall, or add a playlist without clearing your queue. MORE WAYS TO MAKE IT YOURS - Choose which sections appear below a climb, including beta videos, logs and similar climbs. - Turn on Use my grades to browse, sort and filter by your own grades. - Similar climbs and the hold heatmap work on your downloaded board with no signal. - Switch to another board at your gym from the wall panel. - Export your climbing history, playlists and climbs from Settings. FIXES FOR YOUR NEXT SESSION - MoonBoard grades now use MoonBoard's V scale. Logbook imports also accept exports with reordered columns or climb names instead of IDs. - On Woods, turn on Other angles to include climbs set at different angles. The setter filter follows your angle choice. - Sends logged on a flaky connection wait for signal and retry syncing. - Swiping through climbs stays on the list you picked, even when a new log reorders it. - Fixed an iOS launch crash and unwanted Safari tabs when opening the app. Free, no ads, open source.

New in 2.5: WORKS WITH WOODS, FRONT TO BACK Got a Woods Board? Add your 12x12 or 8x10, browse 5,000+ climbs with their matching and feet rules, and light any of them over Bluetooth. Set and remix your own problems on either size (the creator only offers holds that are really on your wall), mirror a climb and the wall flips with it, and run Previous, Next and Mirror from the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Holds draw in the Aura look with crisper outlines. TAKE THE WALL, NO LEDS NEEDED Climbing on a board with no light kit? Take the wall and everyone in the session follows the climb you put up, and so does the gym screen. Switch Lights off in the board's settings: turns keep rotating, your chosen angle stays put, and sessions on a named wall log from your watch too. MIRROR FROM THE LOCK SCREEN While your phone drives the board, the Live Activity and Dynamic Island get a Mirror button next to Previous, Next and the lightbulb. The app, your crew, the thumbnails and the LEDs all follow the mirrored climb, and it's still mirrored when you open the app. FIXED - Holds draw faster: the board renderer no longer waits behind the rest of the app. - Your board stays dark until you ask for it. A phone that drifts back into range hours or days later no longer relights your last climb. The lightbulb, the widget and mid-climb reconnects still light it instantly. - The Climbs tab and its search no longer go dead after a playlist closes over them mid-session. No more force-quitting to get search back. - Downloaded climbs stay up to date after an app update. - Closing climb search no longer pops up a stray preview sheet. Free, no ads, open source.

New in 2.4: AURA: A NEW LOOK FOR YOUR BOARD Lit holds now glow in their own shape, traced off the board art itself, while the rest of the wall dims back. No more coloured circles floating over the photo: the climb reads from across the room. It's called Aura. It's the new default on every board, Woods included, and on Kilter home walls the light comes off the LED plate around each hold. Make it yours under Profile > More > Board look. Start from a preset (Aura, Aura Subtle, Aura Bold, Max contrast) or take over every part of it: glow, veil, marks, list thumbnails, role glyphs, and colour-vision palettes that light your wall in those colours too, not just your screen. Want the old circles back? Set Render to Classic. MOONBOARD - Running the open-source Arduino MoonBoard LED controller? Turn on "Light the hold above" for a dimmer LED above each lit start and hand hold. FIXED - Connecting to a board no longer wipes it. What's lit on the wall stays lit until you pick a climb. - Board photos and hold overlays load without the extra pause. - A Woods climb the app can't light exactly now says so, instead of lighting the wrong holds. Free, no ads, open source.

iOS 27 beta bug fix

Three big ones this update: climb with no signal, one grade that reads the same on every board, and your gym on Boardsesh. Climb offline: - Download a board and keep going with no signal — search climbs, log sends, save favorites. Everything queues on your phone and syncs when you're back. Downloads finish in seconds now, and Manage storage shows what each board takes up so you can clear the ones you're not climbing on. The Boardsesh grade: - One grade that reads the same across Kilter, Tension and MoonBoard, built from every logged send, with a confidence level. Turn on "Show Boardsesh grades" in Settings. Problems nobody's logged yet get an estimate from their hold layout instead of sitting there ungraded. Your gym: - Every gym has a public page now — follow it, or claim it if it's yours. Put your walls on a TV at boardsesh.com/kiosk/your-gym: what's lit on every board, in your logo and colors, with a code climbers scan to get Boardsesh. Also: - Shuffle your results with the new Random sort, filter down to the projects you've tried but haven't sent, and pin the filter shortcuts you actually reach for. - The play screen opens on your own history with the climb — your sends and attempts, right where you can see them. - Your logbook counts straight: duplicate Aurora ascents land once, imported Tension attempts stay attempts, and MoonBoard 2024 sends import properly. - Queue rows and climb rows now work with VoiceOver. - Steadier Bluetooth, steadier sessions with your crew, and fewer memory crashes on long iPad days. Free, no ads, open source.

Fixed bluetooth bug when connecting to Kilter branded LED boxes

Bluetooth bug fix

This update is all about steadier Bluetooth, plus a new way to show off your wall on iPad. Steadier on the wall: - iOS 26.5: fixed Kilter and Tension boards not lighting up, so no more blank board mid-session or connect-then-disconnect churn. - Queued a climb from a different board? Your wall no longer flashes dark. Boardsesh skips it and lights the next one that fits your setup. - Clear a MoonBoard's lights straight from the app over Bluetooth. New, On the Wall on iPad: - Mount an iPad by the wall for a full-screen view of what's lit right now, who's on it, and the session's hardest send, readable from across the room. Step back and forth through the wall's history and tap to relight a climb someone bumped. The screen stays awake for the whole session. Also: - Hide MoonBoard climbs set on holds you don't own: deselect a set and those problems drop out of your results. - MoonBoard sends now add to a climb's community repeat count instead of wiping it, so benchmarks show their real numbers and sort back to the top. - Add a climb to a playlist by pressing and holding it, and spin up a new playlist right there without the sheet vanishing mid-name. Free, no ads, open source.

The full MoonBoard catalog is in, hold colours are yours to tune, and boards light up more reliably on iPhone. New: - The full MoonBoard catalog landed: thousands more problems with real grades, star ratings and send counts, plus the Mini 2025 and original 2010 boards. Original MoonBoard LED hardware lights up over Bluetooth too. - See who's on the wall at a glance: when a crewmate lights up a different climb, their face and that climb show in a capsule up top, while the bottom bar stays your own queue. - Tap any climb in a circuit or playlist and the whole list drops into your queue in order. Swipe back to revisit the boulders above, not just jump to the next. - Mix your own hold colours with a real colour picker, preview them through red-green and blue-yellow colour blindness, and pick a new octagon marker shape. MoonBoard hold circles are bigger and easier to read, too. - Sort your logbook by Hardest top to bottom, with the community consensus grade shown next to the one you logged. Fixed: - Kilter and Tension light up reliably on iPhone: climbs send to the wall instead of the board connecting but staying dark. - MoonBoard lights up on iPhone, recovers after a flaky Bluetooth moment, and now drives from the Dynamic Island. - Fixed an iOS freeze where the app could stop responding to taps after opening and closing sheets. - Filter by setter, hold type or board region again. The pickers open full screen and the whole sheet scrolls. - Live sessions reconnect after your login refreshes, and pause then refetch when you drop offline and come back. Free, no ads, open source.

Boardsesh 2.0 is a full native rebuild. The whole app is rewritten, so it's fast where it used to lag. Lists scroll smooth, search is instant. Same app, just faster: - Search a climb and light the holds over Bluetooth on Kilter, Tension, MoonBoard, Decoy, Touchstone, Grasshopper and So iLL. - Walk up to any wall and see what's on it right now: the lit climb, who lit it, the grade, angle and setter, live as people climb. - Climb with your crew in a live session: one shared queue anyone can add to, reorder and drive. - Run the session from your lock screen and Dynamic Island on iOS 17+ with Live Activities. - Build a Volume, Pyramid, Ladder or Grade Focus workout and fire the climbs to the wall one at a time. - Track sends, flashes and attempts, and watch your grades chart out on the Progress tab. - Save sessions to Apple Health and import your past Kilter and Tension logbook from Aurora Climbing. Free, no ads, open source.
