Features
Overhang is a climbing log and strength tracker for climbers who train. iPhone, iOS 18 or later. No account, works offline. Free while in beta.
A hangboard timer that runs the protocol.
Pick a protocol and hang. Overhang counts you in, times every hang and rest, and logs each set as it ends.
- Four protocols: max hangs, 5 × 10 s per grip; repeaters, 7 s on and 3 s off, six to a set; no-hangs (Abrahangs), 20 submax 10 s hangs across six grips; and the Max Lift Test, which sets their target loads.
- The Max Lift Test measures each grip by position, fingers, edge and arms, and the protocols take their target loads from it.
- Targets on today's weight. With your bodyweight logged, a hang target rescales to what you weigh now, not on test day.
- Rest timer with sound cues and a Live Activity on the lock screen.
- Picks up where you left it. Close the timer mid-rest and it resumes on the same second.
Logging a climb takes two taps.
Tap the grade, then how it went. Every button is sized for chalky hands between attempts.
- V-scale, Font or your gym's colors. Switch the grade system in Settings and your logged climbs follow; switch back and you get the grades you logged.
- Flash, Send or Attempt. Every failed try is logged as its own attempt.
- The session as you climb: climbs, tops, flashes, top rate, max grade and attempts, live in its header.
- Fix it later. Edit any finished session from History: grades, results, the gym, the date.
Charts for every grip and lift.
Overhang's Progress tab sorts your log into Climbing, Fingers and Strength, each with its best and its trend.
- e1RM by the Epley estimate. With your bodyweight logged, a weighted pull-up or dip counts it plus the belt.
- Heaviest set, volume and e1RM per exercise, over a month, three months, a year or all of it.
- Grip strength per grip, as a percentage of bodyweight, against edge depth.
- Grade pyramid and your max grade over time.
- NEW BEST when a max actually goes up. Your first session on an exercise sets the baseline.
Your log stays on your iPhone.
It's a database on the phone itself. There's no account and no cloud sync, because there's no Overhang server to sync to.
- Offline. Works in airplane mode and at a crag with no signal.
- Back up to a file, or keep a copy in your own iCloud. Restore from either after a reinstall or on a new phone.
- Export as JSON or spreadsheets from Settings, Your Data.
- History and export never lock.
- Apple Health, optional: off by default. Bodyweight in, finished sessions out as workouts.
