Boulder Trainer for Negative User Reviews

✓ Most boards are labeled incorrectlyDecided to get the app because it claims to support so many different boards so that any gym I would go to the app would be useful. However turns out that all the boards I had access to so far are labeled incorrectly in the app with some exercises even reference numbers that are not shown on the board. That unfortunately reduces the apps value to zero until this is fixed. Re. developer response: For example select Metolius Project Board, General Entry Level, Exercise 4, the referenced position is 14 for the left hand, 14 is not shown on the board. One out of many such errors. If a plan doesn't match a board you shouldn't make it available for selection for that board..X/biVersion: 3.0.6

✓ Not bad, but not great.Could do with more content for other boards. Mostly geared towards metolious. Also needs a little polish, little things like an icon to unlock the demo (in the paid version??) the FAQ is lifted straight from the metolious site, & in the hang board manager, it would be better to acknowledge your 'other hang board' going back a screen there's nothing to show your choice. This app has potential with more work, I also have the beastmaker app which is great, so an app that can be used in any gym that has any board could be amazing..MrpogdenVersion: 1.0

✓ I want something that will allow me to log workoutsI personally don't want instruction through the app, but I would like a timer and a log..Pianoman314159Version: 3.2.2

✓ Registration is buggy.Developer, please reach out to me. I can’t contact you through your website’s support avenue. The website needs improvement. Issues: -I can’t sign up for an online account —it won’t accept my last name because it’s too short, so I have to add letters. —it wouldn’t take and so I entered my info 5+ times and still couldn’t get an account made —Went to website and says I have to register in app..Word5fourVersion: 3.3.13

✓ Problems signing upIt seems like a good app but I am unable to create an account to join the community to have access to other people programs but I keep getting an error. Wish that it would work a bit better. Also it seems that they don’t have the evo rings.Fix your-problemVersion: 3.2.4

✓ Room for improvementGreat idea app, it need resting time set up for exercises with multiple repetition..Drat72Version: 1.0

✓ 3.50$ for nothingThe app keeps closing when I try to start the training. Look nice, but you have to enter your le. trainning programs..Labon-tVersion: 3.0.1

✓ Absolute RubbishUnable to access Problem Solver workout-just defaults back to the Metolius workout. Very annoying and frustrating for an app that we have paid for not to function properly.ReaaaqefddVersion: 3.3.14

✓ Don't buy itEvery time I open the app and try to load my workout, it just crashes..Oxyjennrt45Version: 3.0.1

✓ Disappointing1. While I can select my hang board on the app the preprogrammed exercises don’t relate to it (exercise instructs more holds than board has). 2. Awkward to navigate. Selecting a work out is not intuitive. 3. Doesn’t give an indication of overall exercise duration. 4. Unable to check where you’re at in the exercise without jumping forwards..Wanderlust909Version: 3.3.14

✓ Not User FriendlyThis app isn’t user friendly at all. Switching between boards is impossible. And the preset workouts for each board seem random and aren’t geared correctly towards the skill level it’s labeled as..Germ YarnVersion: 3.3.14

✓ Unimpressive.Wasted my money here. They must have paid for all those 5 star ratings. Very unimpressed..UforixxVersion: 3.3.10

✓ Just a flashy timer... lazy workI wonder if the 4 / 5 stars were given by friends. It’s just a flashy timer app. Disappointed that there are only a few preset regime. You can make your own plan. The developer could’ve spent time researching various regimes. You can see there’s some thought to outsource that to the “community” with BT online, but it’s an empty ghost town. Summary, they’ve got the skills to make a flashy pretty timer but were too lazy to include substantial training regimes. Not recommended.Consumer2099Version: 3.2.2

✓ Glitchy waste of moneyLooked like it could be a good addition, especially with all the hangboards it supposedly supports—there are many options, correct, however, no matter which board I choose, the Metolius wood grips continues to display for my workouts. Don’t waste your money..JamiewamiebobamieVersion: 3.3.10

✓ IOS 6 would be greatIt would be great if it was compatible with IOS 6 and later… Those who only have iPod 4th generation can't use the app…..PosabVersion: 1.0

✓ The voice countdown is broken.I’ve used this app for a few years and I loved it for its convenience as a timer for my hangboarding workouts. However, it recently developed a problem where the voice countdown isn’t working properly. The timer stutters whenever the app talks, so instead of a precise 5 second countdown, it takes anywhere from 6.5-8 seconds to countdown “5” seconds. I love this app, but this problem makes it unusable..AKShamuVersion: 3.3.14

✓ UselessDo not buy, this app is useless and their is no customer support for you to get a refund. It lets you choose from a wide variety of hang boards and lets you set what holds you will be using for the workou but DOESNT allow you to program rest times between sets of intervals. Setting up workouts is also very convoluted and inefficient. I just wanted to do basic Rock prodigy hangboard workout of 6 reps per set with 3 min break between sets and could not program that with this app. Ignore the pretty pictures of hangboards, it is absolutely useless as a hang board timer..MikePA 24Version: 3.3.10

✓ In dire need of an updateThere are a few free apps that offer the same functionality of this one, without the bugs. Protocols are a but clunky to modify, and currently the way to set a hold for an exercise has no visible reference to your selected board. Board selection is also broken, and the options for mainstream board are outdated. The main functionality of using the timer and cycling between exercises, adding rests, adding many duplicate hangs works well, but lots of free apps have similar functionality. I’m sure there’s a few other things that need work, but bottom line: it’s been 3 years since an update, and this is still an excellent tool that could have more users if it gets a bit of maintenance..WgalbrdVersion: 3.3.14

✓ Do not download spamI downloaded this app and did not sign up to subscription. I found no way yet to contact developer and have reported problem through apple. Please unsubscribe me and return my money..Sid.arora1Version: 3.3.14

✓ UnuseableThis app is super unstable. I can't even provide feedback through the app so i'm doing it here. Searching for shared workouts provides empty lists, constant connection timeouts on perfectly good wifi. The navigation buttons take you to nonsensical views. For £2.99 you'd expect a working app at least. I know free apps (albeit with adverts) that crush this paid app. Really disappointed..Grunt1468Version: 3.0.6

✓ Ok butSo the hangs and countdown are ok, but as there is no timer between each exercise you still need to use a watch or countdown timer on your device making the app pointless. Better off with a piece of paper and the timer on your phone / pad. Build in the timer and this would be great, until then....ISlowrunnerVersion: 1.0

✓ Good not greatPros - easy interface - solid support for many hangboards - easy to customize workout - great timing cues for when hangs begin / end Cons (Constructive criticism) - no ability to listen to music or podcasts at the same time. (Please make this happen! Only a mutant would be willing to hang board without music / other distractions) - when in a workout, allow for the user to skip sections of the workout (as of now it will immediately auto play the very next exercise if you press the "back" button) - I have yet to be able to download / share workout routines with others on their website.. it seems buggy.David S OwensVersion: 3.0.6

✓ App didn’t work, no help fixing itPLEASE DO NOT BUY, DONT GET RIPPED OFF. I paid for the app, downloaded it, but when I go to try to sign up to create an account it tells me unknown error. I email support, and they tell me sorry we can’t help you. Other people have been able to use it. So you can go through the whole process of getting a huge 4 dollars back. It’s not about the money it’s all the time and energy I wasted that could have been put into something that actually works, or that the support team even cares about.Arrowood7126Version: 3.3.14
