United StatesForget the notebook and leave your worksheets at home. Track your progress easier than ever before with the Ascend climbing journal. Logging a climb is simple and intuitive. As climbers ourselves, we've cut out all the extras to make sure only the stats you want to see are front and center. One thing we didn't strip down were Milestones, which encourage you to keep growing each time you break an old record. Effortlessly track your personal bests and keep seeing your improvements with Ascend progress reporting: - number of send climbs vs falls - number of indoor vs outdoor climbs - difficulty of send climbs vs falls - difficulty of indoor vs outdoor climbs You can review our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use at http://avalancheapps.com/terms-of-use/ Climb harder.

Great app and it actually works. Thanks.
United StatesGood idea, medium execution
I love the idea of this app because I like to track my climbs for when I’m feeling like my efforts aren’t paying off...then I can see that I did a high volume of climbs or have been climbing harder, which boosts my spirits. But I’ve noticed that the climbs I log don’t always reflect properly in the insights section. For instance, this month I only climbed a 10a, 10b, and a 10c and somehow the average difficulty is reported as a 5.9. And sometimes at the end of a month, the climbs somehow get bumped over to the next month. For example—climbs that I did at the end of December seemed to show up on the January insights before it was even January yet! I thought all the discrepancies between the log and insights was possibly due to an older version, so i updated, but still have the same issue.
United StatesGreat idea, glitchy
I love the idea and hope to get it to work, but every time I go to manually put in the grade and route, it crashes and makes me restart, never actually putting it on my profile.
United StatesGive me too much credit
Easy to use and a nice way to track your success on routes. First time I used it though I manually entered a session with 7 climbs. Then it started saying my total number of climbs was 47... WAT
United StatesCool Visualizations But...
...the notes feature is extremely lacking. I use it to track diet, how the session felt, training regiment after. It's just a snippet when you view the session after saving, as opposed to something more useful, like a full-screen display of your notes. The graphs are interesting. what would be nice is if I could place universal date markers for the graphs that are some kind of metric over time. this way if I start a new cycle of training or new exercise, I can actually see dips and falls as time goes on. overall - Im using this app as a cloud repository of all my climbing and training data, with useful visualizations of that data. so a 5-star rating from me is based on that. So a justification of my rating/opinion: - 1 star off because the social aspect is practically useless for me, and I wish that I could start up the app with ONLY my sessions in the journal view. The heart of the issue here is that logging and viewing MY data is not first-and-forthmost in the UI. It's too many taps and I'm either at the gym or crag. It's cumbersome and there's room for features that can streamline this experience. For example, adding a feature where force-pressing the app icon to log a session, and any workflows stemming from it, would help with this IMO. - another star off due to useless UI elements and misc flaws. notes UI is trash as mentioned above, the only graph that's useful (for me at least) for tracking progress is avg difficulty (which doesn't need a subscription), other graphs are quite useless relative to that. milestones feel useless or artificial but I would have to think about this more to articulate why I find it useless too. I appreciate that there's an app like this. Unfortunately the UI/UX, while functional and bug-free and pretty...is seemingly more centered around this cobbling-together of stats. And it holds the app back sooooo much from what it potentially could be.
United StatesGreat app needs watch support
Like how it tracks progress and compares over time. Would gladly pay for premium version that has apple watch aupport
United StatesSeems really useful, but would like a watch app
This tool seems really useful, and I will totally use it more and more. I work at a rock gym, and I can see this being a valuable tool for coaching teams and adult classes. I think it’d be ever more useful with a watch companion, as climbing with a phone in your pocket can be tricky and updating the app after each climb seems like a little much. Even a small Bluetooth companion that could connect to a chalk bag or harness could make this app even more useful.
