## Rockfax Climbing Guidebooks Reviews in United Kingdom

### **--- "Nice guides but buggy and awkward app"
The guides and topos are great, however the app itself crashes frequently on my iPhone 11, and it’s often difficult to navigate and find the information I want.
-- Hae_11, 2024-11-17

### ***** "RockFax Climbing App"
The best climbing App ever, but I would say that wouldn’t I 😀
-- Stanageman, 2024-11-11

### ***-- "Not a complete work"
Great at what it does, but basically it’s an electronic collection of books, with some areas missing. For the monthly cost I would expect everything in the uk to be here
-- wilkysj, 2024-10-02

### ***** "Great way to get around, with further potential"
This is an incredibly useful app, and for the places that it covers is my preferred way of getting around now, and I’m fairly happy with the pricing. 
Once you know where you want to go, it’s pretty easy to get to the content you want.

I’ve found myself wanting to find new sport climbing crags recently, and find that the app is not great for this sort of discovery mission. I’d love if the map view, rather than being a separate tab with its own (less powerful) search function, was a view on the Crags, Routes, and Logbook pages that tapped into their excellent search features so that I could: search for ‘England bouldering’ in the Crags tab and see options on the map, search for routes of a particular grade and quality in the Routes tab and see them on the map, see my ticks from my logbook on a map.

A few other things on my wishlist for this app are:
I’d like to get to the area access info quicker. When viewing topos for an area in a crag, I would like if the gray area info bar (with its all-important little ‘i’ button for area access info) would stay pinned at the top so I don’t have to scroll back up to get it
I’d like to be able to worry less about storage space
Allow deleting crags straight from crags tab without clicking in to the guidebook first?
Auto delete unused crags?
More progressive loading of crags? Maybe you can open any crag without having to download all the hi-res images, just the thumbnails. The hi-res images just get loaded in on demand like a webpage and then you can say if you want it stored longer term for offline use?
I’d like to be able to know whether a crag is useful to me without having to download all the image data. In the list of crags tab when you’ve selected a guidebook, show the climbing type, grade histogram and number of routes without having to download the crag image data
Richer UKC integration
Show public feedback of routes, not just ascent notes
Show and allow input of UKC grade and quality feedback
Support emoji in ascent notes, at the moment just see question marks which is a bit confusing

Thanks for creating this app, it’s really a great way of using the Rockfax data.
-- jaredkhan, 2024-06-15

### *---- "This is rubbish"
I can see any of the crags it says I have to be a user to Vue but doesn’t tell me how to be a user. I click download and it just says you need to be a user to view this.
-- Were&#039;s my head, 2024-06-08

### ***-- "Needs some love"
There are visual bugs and the app is not intuitive.
-- AS-QV, 2024-05-29

### ****- "Good when it works."
Had problems with buying new crags on a legacy account but support got back to me quickly
-- Stan72lad, 2024-05-20

### ***** "Great App"
It’s a game changer no longer needing to take pictures of the guidebook all the time. The quality of the route topos are incredible👌
-- Josh123killer, 2024-04-29

### ****- "Better than a book, I suppose."
It is not as good as it could be. For instance the Font app Boolder, is free and is first class. Shows you exactly where you are in comparison to the route location, has photo topo and, in most cases, a YouTube video link. You can tick the problem when complete or make it a project. 
Can’t do any of that on the paid for Rockfax app. It’s just like a book, but on your phone. Therefore less weight to carry to the crag. 
That’s it, that’s the benefit.
-- Urban5teve, 2024-03-29

### ****- "Initially a sceptic…"
Yup initially not convinced about using an online guide, but find myself reaching for it often. Have used ROCKFAX and UKC for a long time and seamlessly synced my logbook to remind me of routes that I had done and long since forgotten! Pretty damn good.
-- Jim Thacker, 2024-03-20
