Climb Buddy app - of interest?
|
Hi Colorado climbers, |
|
great idea. I would like to see a website side too so i can use either the app or do it through a web browser. |
|
Just downloaded it. It's a well put together app and I hope it takes off. It's spelled "climbing center" though, and what the hell is this kilometer jazz anyways? |

This could actually be really sweet. I hope it takes off. |

I just downloaded it and it seems like a cool idea. I would say Americanize it a bit and offer a lot more options for climbing experience from gym, sport, boulder, trad, ice, alpine, different ratings and then the ability to filter by those settings. For example you're looking for a partner who is a trad climber than can lead 5.9 (I think 5a in the UK). Otherwise shows promise. |

Ha! If you guys overtake the number of UK climbers using it, I'll officially change it to 'center' :) |

Found if you are zoomed out or have moved the map and you click on a buddy or check messages or anything else and then go back to the map, the map is re-centered and zoomed back into your location instead of maintaining its previous location and view level. |

It's not something people like to share publicly for identity theft reasons.I second this. I think you should be able to share as little or as much as you like in your profile options. For example, I couldn't complete the set up without adding a picture. I should have the option to not share a picture. Caroline, I hope you find all theses suggestions constructive. |

Very constructive, thanks! Although please note that your DOB is not displayed to others - the app simply calculates and displays your age from the DOB you enter. This way it updates automatically as a birthday goes past! |

I would say at the time of entering that there be a note that that's what it's for and that it won't be displayed. |
