Title: New BMC Regional Access Database app.
Post by: duncan on April 03, 2018, 08:17:05 pm

Details here (https://www.thebmc.co.uk/bmc-new-rad-access-app). At first glance it seems much improved.

A related point not directly concerning the app: the link to the pdf with full details of Cheddar south restrictions doesn't work via the app or direct from the BMC website. In both cases I was prompted to sign-in to the website but still couldn't access the page.

Thanks posting this up duncan.

Everyone get downloading.  :whip:

I've noticed that the general and description fields from the website version are missing so put in a request with the IT team upstairs to include this.

Any other feedback appreciated - especially if wrapped up in a compliment sandwich  ;D

It looks good and simple to use. I like the idea of having more than just access info to encourage people to use the app. If they think "how do I get to Whitehouses? I know, I'll navigate to it using the RAD app" but then discover it's banned, then that seems like a win.

Last updated 3rd April so may well be new since you downloaded on Saturday.

The icon for the new app is the red and white BMC mountain logo silhouette with 'RAD' bottom right.

A real improvement, thanks to all who helped with the development.

Few snags I've noticed; comments don't seem to be uploading to the various crags (I sent a few testers) and the weather doesn't seem to be syncing correctly, although it was yesterday.

In terms of actual operation though, its great!
