Does Overhang need an account?

No. Overhang has nothing to sign up for and nothing to sign in to.

Does Overhang work offline?

Yes. Overhang works with no signal at all. There's no Overhang server.

What doesn't Overhang do?

The changelog lists every shipped Overhang release.

Your data

Where does Overhang keep my data?

Overhang keeps your log in a database on your iPhone. It leaves the phone only in a file you save, or in your own iCloud if your iPhone's iCloud Backup or Overhang's iCloud copy is on.

How do I back up my Overhang log?

Overhang backs up from Settings, Your Data: to a file, or as a copy in your own iCloud. Restore from either after a reinstall or on a new phone.

Can I export my data from Overhang?

Yes. Overhang exports JSON or spreadsheets from Settings, Your Data, and export never locks.

Does Overhang work with Apple Health?

Yes, and it's off by default: Overhang imports bodyweight for strength-to-weight and exports finished sessions as workouts.

Training

Which grade systems does Overhang use?

Overhang grades boulders in V-scale (VB to V17) or Font (Fontainebleau, 3 to 9A), or by your gym's colors. Switch Grading System in Settings and your logged climbs follow; switch back and you get the grades you logged.

Which hangboard protocols does Overhang time?

Overhang times four hangboard protocols with a guided timer, alongside your own routines: 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.

How does Overhang estimate e1RM?

Overhang uses the Epley estimate. With your bodyweight logged, a weighted pull-up or dip counts it plus the belt, then reads back as the added weight.

When does Overhang show a NEW BEST?

Overhang shows NEW BEST when a max actually goes up. Your first session on an exercise sets the baseline; after that, a best has to beat it.

The beta

How do I join the Overhang beta?

Overhang's beta runs on Apple's TestFlight: install TestFlight from the App Store on your iPhone, then open the beta link there and tap Install.

Is Overhang free?

Yes. Overhang is free while in beta.

Will my Overhang log carry over from the beta?

Yes. The App Store version of Overhang updates the beta in place, so your log stays.
