Climb Meter: For rock climbing 4+

This is a nifty little app that uses the Barometer in an Apple Watch to quantify the vertical distance climbed, and interfaces with the heart rate monitor on your Apple Watch to record heart rate. After you have topped out, it gives you a notification to add the climb rating. I have not tried it on multi pitch outdoor climbing, so I can’t comment on that. It does have a little bit of difficulty with single pitch outdoor climbing if the base of the crag is not flat, as it will occasionally record a small elevation change moving from one climb to the other, as a climb. It’s ideal application is in the climbing gym where it works very well.

Quick way to track your climbs during your session. Easy to start with complications for your watch.

This app has a lot of potential but unfortunately doesn’t deliver (yet).

It would be awesome if this app could sync up specific climbs with the HR and include moving time as well. This way you would be able to track progress and efficiently (am I moving faster on the same climb? Am I climbing more efficiently by decreasing my HR?)

It would also be awesome if we could write comments on specific climbs and upload a picture as well.
I also wish this app kept a data log of each session: calculating HR, moving time, and average grade for that session it could tell us if we are progressing -(this could be indicated on a graph chart) similar to my “workout” app that I use for strength training.

If this app added more features AND tracked session climbing progress I would gladly pay a subscription fee.
