Favorite Routesetting Apps of Routesetters Since 2022
Routesetting apps are tools designed to help setters and gyms streamline the process of managing routesetting. Instead of relying on notebooks, spreadsheets or memory, setters can log and track each problem digitally. These apps record details like a problem’s grade, wall location, style, and when it was set. They also allow setting teams to track the lifespan of climbs, see when a set is due for a reset, and collect feedback from members. Many platforms include features for tagging hold types and climb styles, archiving past sets, and even analyzing data about which problems climbers are trying or sending. Some routesetting apps extend beyond routesetting, allowing setters to track competition scores, for instance. One of the principal goals of a routesetting app is to help setters spend less time on administrative tasks and more time focusing on routesetting.
