MyClimb 4+

So helpful!

I love being able to track my climbing progress with MyClimb. There are also a couple of other climbers at my gyms who use this app, so it’s helpful for building a sense of community if you can support each other digitally when you’re not actually at the gym! I know some folks like to go analog and track climbs on paper but I find it’s been really useful to track digitally. I’ve been using My Climb for several years and have loved being able to pull up graphs charting my progress and showing where I’m at now vs. different points in my climbing history. Definitely worth using!

I don’t like the update

When I go to log a climb manually there are some routes on there not from my gym even if I have it filtered. But it didn’t do that before I updated it. And the workouts are WAY too hard I liked how the workouts were before the update. You could choose to do an easy workout or a hard workout. But now their is only 1 workout I will actually probably be able to do for bouldering. So please change the workouts back to how they were. 😁 but this app is very helpful. But not the workouts. I know the workouts are supposed to be more personalized and I answered the “survey” correctly but it was way harder than I can climb. Also now when I get notifications they don’t show up on my home screen. I have to actually go into the app and go to notifications. So that’s annoying.

Thanks for the review! We fixed the bug, that you mentioned. Apologies for that bug, can we send you a free MyClimb chalk bag to make up for it (email us at contact@myclimbapp.com about it).

Have you tried the 'Level 1' workouts. These are essentially the same as the previous workouts that we offered

Improved

Edit: These issues have almost completely gone away, so I've revised my score to four stars.

I enjoy this app a lot when it works, but it gets stuck on the opening screen probably 75% of the time (100% if loading from a home screen notification) and I have to force quit the app and start over frequently. At least four times, it's given me a "something went wrong" message when trying to post a session and I've had to write down my climbs, delete the session, and reenter everything. I have an iPhone XS, but my friends with Androids have had some of these same issues. I've tried deleting and reinstalling with no difference in performance.

It's a fun and engaging app otherwise, and I guess the fact that I'm putting myself through all this to use it proves it.
