Getting started

The basics: an account, a gym, a wall, and your first problem.

What is Beeboard?

Beeboard is an app for spray walls and board climbing. With it you can:

  • Log your climbing: ascents, attempts and repeats for every problem
  • Build circuits: several problems in a row, with rest periods between them
  • Climb together: a Jam Session shares one queue of problems between phones
  • Light up the wall: with LEDs installed, you can light up the holds of the selected problem

Step 1: Create an account

  1. Open the web app. The iPhone app is in closed beta; launch is planned for early 2027.
  2. Sign up with your email, or sign in with Google
  3. Choose a username and fill in your profile

Step 2: Join or create a gym

Gyms are how Beeboard organises walls and problems. A gym can be a climbing centre or a wall in your garage.

Joining a gym

  1. Tap Climb on the home screen
  2. Search for the gym by name, city or country, or find it on the map
  3. A private gym shows a lock. Ask a member for its 6-character code and enter it under By Code

Creating your own gym

  1. Tap Create New Gym
  2. Give it a name and a photo, and tap the map to set its location
  3. Choose public or private. A private gym is not on the map, and people join it with its code

Step 3: Add a wall

Walls can have several angles (for example 20°, 30° and 40°). The angles are set when you create the wall.

  1. In your gym, add a wall
  2. Upload a photo of the wall
  3. Pick the angles it supports
  4. Save

Step 4: Map your holds

Before you create problems, mark where the holds are.

  1. Tap the gear icon next to the wall to open the hold editor
  2. Tap each hold on the photo
  3. With LEDs: give each hold the number of the LED behind it
  4. Save

Step 5: Create your first problem

  1. In the climb screen’s menu, choose Add new problem
  2. Select holds and give each one its role:
    • Start (green): where you start
    • Standard (blue): hands and feet
    • Hand (purple): hands only
    • Foot (yellow): feet only
    • Finish (red): where you finish
  3. Save, and start climbing

There is no grade to set. The first person to send the problem at an angle sets its grade there.
