SportClimb Tracker

Track your sport climbing sessions directly from your wrist. SportClimb Tracker automatically detects when you start climbing and measures route height using your watch's barometric altimeter — no GPS required. Please note: automatic height measurement relies on your watch's built-in barometric altimeter. On devices without a barometric altimeter, automatic route detection and height tracking are not available — you can still log routes manually and enter the height yourself. A note from the developer: this app is still in active development, and I'd love your input. The first few sessions can take some getting used to, so if you run into anything confusing or have ideas for improvement, please reach out to me directly at [email protected], your feedback is exactly what helps me turn this into a truly great climbing app. And of course, if you enjoy using it, a review would mean a lot! Before use, read the manual at: https://sportclimbanalytics.com/app After your session, sync your watch with the Garmin Connect app, then visit https://sportclimbanalytics.com/ to explore your climbing data, progress charts, success rates, and wall style breakdowns. Goal: get the climbing grade shown as a column in Garmin Connect. Garmin has acknowledged the bug preventing this, but it needs more support to get prioritized. You can help: open the link below, sign in with your free Garmin account, and click the "+1" button on the report. The more votes it gets, the more likely Garmin is to fix it. https://forums.garmin.com/developer/connect-iq/i/bug-reports/string-type-fitcontributor-lap-fields-data_type_string-not-displaying-in-garmin-connect-activity-laps-charts-view FEATURES Auto-detect route start based on altitude change Manual route start/stop via the lap button Log per route: – Grade (French, UIAA, USA or SA system) – Result (On Sight, Flash, Redpoint, Hang Dog, Repeat, DNF) - On Sight – 1st try, blind - Flash – 1st try, with info - Redpoint – clean, after practice - Hang Dog – working the route - Repeat – done before - DNF – did not finish – Type (Lead, Toprope, Warmup) – Style (Slab, Vertical, Overhang, Roof) – Height (auto-measured, manually adjustable) Location types: Gym, Climbing Board, Outdoor Crag, Outdoor Boulder Session summary with total height gained and heart rate stats Altitude and heart rate graphs during your session Saves to Garmin Connect as a Rock Climbing activity with custom fields per lap A dedicated analysis website to track your progress over time, visualize your climbing history and spot trends in grade, style and success rate: https://sportclimbanalytics.com/ ────────────────────────────── SPORTCLIMB TRACKER — USAGE GUIDE See: https://sportclimbanalytics.com/app DURING A SESSION Starting a route The app detects climbing automatically when the altitude rises more than 1.5 m — the watch vibrates and plays a tone to confirm. You can also start manually by pressing the Lap button. (Automatic detection requires a watch with a barometric altimeter; on other devices, use the Lap button to start each route manually.) Stopping a route Press Lap again to finish the route. A screen appears to log grade, result, type, style and height. The measured height is pre-filled automatically. Press Save to confirm. Cancelling a route Press Down while climbing to cancel the active route without saving it. Ending the session Press Start to open the session menu. Choose Save to send the session to Garmin Connect, or Discard to delete it. Set your Location before starting your session — it is saved with the activity in Garmin Connect. Gyms are now fully manageable: add, favorite, rename or delete them anytime from Settings, with or without GPS - a gym is remembered as soon as you type it, and matched by location automatically on a later visit if GPS was available.

Version 3.11 Location confirmation now also appears when pressing START with no GPS fix yet, not only once a GPS fix arrives. Version 3.10 When a GPS fix arrives on the start screen, the watch now asks to confirm the location before you begin, so it's already right for the whole session instead of only from the first logged route. Version 3.9 Sector, route number, set/sub and build date now travel along to sportclimbanalytics.com with each route, so an area's sectors show up separately there too. Version 3.8 The recovery gauge now also waits for the rest you've earned, not just for your heart rate, so it no longer jumps to ready when you log a route late. Every route asks for a bit more rest, and resting well keeps that from building up. Version 3.7.2 Fixes a crash right after saving a session when the phone was out of reach, the recovery gauge can now also be closed with any button. Version 3.7.1 The recovery gauge no longer reaches "cooled down" after a few minutes, cooling off now takes about a quarter of an hour, longer after a hard route. Version 3.7 New recovery gauge after logging a route, shows from your heart rate when you're ready for the next one, switch it on in the settings. Version 3.6 Outdoor routes now record Area, Sector and route number, Board records Angle and problem number, fixed a bug where fields wouldn't update after switching location type. Version 3.5 Grade and set/sub entry now use quick scroll wheels instead of long lists, low French grades (3, 4) added. Thanks to Mathias! Version 3.4.1 Pairing status now updates right after you confirm on the website. Version 3.4 Pair your watch with sportclimbanalytics.com, sessions are sent automatically. Version 3.3 Language errors fixed, user-friendliness improved. Version 3.2 Locations: routes now use a location's known coordinates for the map even without a fresh GPS fix this session. Version 3.1 Extended logging: improved how routes are recorded and recognized, mode, style and height are now remembered per route too, and a bug that could make an already-climbed route look new has been fixed. Version 3.0 Most settings can now also be changed from the Garmin Connect app on your phone, Manage locations stays on the watch. Various stability improvements. Version 2.11 Improved how GPS is linked to a location. Version 2.10 Locations: gyms, crags, boards and boulder spots are now one logical concept instead of two separate parts — add, favorite, rename, delete or change the type of a location anytime from Settings, with or without Extended logging or a GPS fix. Version 2.9.1 Fixed a crash that could occur when starting a route immediately (within 1 second) after beginning a session - if you saw the app marked as crashed after a climbing session, this should fix it. Gym management: add, favorite, rename or delete gyms anytime from Settings, no GPS fix or active route needed - a gym you type without a fix is now remembered too, not just ones detected automatically. Version 2.8 Result explained: tap Result to see On Sight, Flash, Redpoint, Hang Dog, Repeat and DNF with a short explanation ("?" for full details anytime). Smarter logging: with Extended logging on, Grade and Result are now suggested automatically for a recognized route. New button hints (Settings) show colored arrows for LAP/BACK and START/STOP. Version 2.7 Extended logging: the route identity fields (set/sub/build date, or area/route number) now appear first in the log screen, so you confirm the route before rating it. Grade is now part of the route identity, so two routes with the same set/sub can be told apart. "DNF" now reads "Did Not Finish". Version 2.6 New optional "Extended logging" setting. When on, you can also record the set number, sub number and build month indoors, or the area and route number outdoors. The watch recognises a route you climbed before and shows your previous attempt, and warns if you pick On Sight/Flash on a route you already tried.
