Ratings and reviews

Topos are great, but the locations of boulders and routes are waaay off in Castle Rock state park (Bay Area California) so far off that I waste so much time trying to figure out where I am, it is just rediculous. I don't see why it would be hard to have exact gps coordinates for each route. Premium is too expensive also, if I am going to pay $50 I want to own the app, not have to pay again every year. Also not willing to pay $8 a month to have an app on my phone. I can't stand subscriptions.

I was looking at this app and it's site in preparation for a trip to a world-class area in Spain. Both led me to believe that there were great photos and topos and lots of helpful information. After I subscribed, there are exactly zero topos, almost no photos, and a small amount of videos. The videos don't open in the app, so don't expect offline access. But the ads are still there!

This is a very good app in a lot of ways. The topos are far superior to the text descriptions of routes available on Mountain Project, for example. I find the app easier to navigate and use than the website in general. There are a few little annoyances with the app, such as hiding the 'free' routes by default. After I became a premium member, I found that I sometimes missed the free boulders because of that default setting. I also wish that when using the map feature to navigate through trails in the woods on my way to a new boulder that the screen wouldn't dim so fast. As a suggestion, it would be a cool feature if I could be notified when new routes are published on boulders I've climbed, or near my home location.
