What it does

Pinnacle Climb Log is the easiest way to log your session in the gym. I built it so I'd be able to leave my phone in the locker and climb with my pockets free :). It uses the device's sensors to capture heart rate and calores. And it integrates with the Activity and Health apps to contribute to your activity ring. Please let me know what you think!

The app works great on my Apple Watch Series 3. You start a session and tap the route difficulty after your climb to log it. Heart rate is tracked and workouts/calories are credited to your Apple Health data if you want. Super simple, but there is room for improvement.Sometimes I’m so exhausted after a climb that I forget to log the route.

No social features, no notifications, just simple tracking that helps build consistency. Launched on Product Hunt today. Android is live…
