The app does a solid job at what it aims to do when you've got mobile data coverage, but it will do essentially nothing (other than continue to track your movement) if you don't have coverage. This means that if you're somewhere without coverage (many if not most places in a ski resort) and want to look at a map, you can't. You also can't start tracking (even without sharing your location with others) without coverage. Since I don't track myself the whole day (for phone battery reasons), the app is generally non-functional 80% of the time I want to use it due to not having cell coverage.Caching the list of resorts and maps for offline access would solve this problem. Additionally, allowing users to start tracking without coverage should be quite feasible.The app is 80% of the way there in terms of functionality but only 40% of the way there in terms of real-world usability. Realizing the remaining 60% is not hard though.
Good, but not as good as the previous Palisades app

On the plus side, this app has all the key information skiers need, including which lifts are open and scheduled, trails open and closed, parking info, and even lift wait times, although that last info is oddly hard to find as it's only showed on the map in Trails mode, which is not the default. The map in the default Village mode is useless to me. Only key info that's missing is the 2-week weather outlook, which was very useful to plan my next ski trip. A very annoying feature is that it prompts for user ID and password every week, and there's no automatic completion, so you need to keep those handy. The old app was much better in that it prompted for those rarely. In short, it's a good app but a significant step down from the older Palisades app we had until last year, and all other skiers I've talked to have told me the same.

Lots of complaints about this app, I miss the mammoth app. The ski lift status isn’t reliable. Skiers need a source to depend on when lifts are going to open, especially after a storm or a powder day. A few days ago after a storm, I had to decide what lift to try to get some fresh turns, one chairlift said “expected” another chairlift said under 30 minutes.I ended up seeing skiers going up chair 22 when the app still said expected, I jammed over there and was able to get in a couple laps. By the time I finish my first run it still did not say in the app that the chair was even open. I realize this is a manual entry by Lift operations, but it was a very poor execution over the last 2 1/2 weeks that I’ve been up here it is consistently been very delayed
The latest edition is awful

Someone changed the logic so it doesn’t work unless you have an active internet connection so they can track you. All other skiing apps will let you load a map from your phone’s memory and track you via GPS until you get to the lodge and may be in wifi or cellular range. Not this app! Even if you have skied the same resort before and have the base map stored in your phone, this app won’t start your tracking session unless they can connect to the IKON servers to they can send you ads and collect your marketing information. Did you forget to start the app until your at the top of the chair? Too bad. You don’t get credit for any runs you did in the back bowls. Skiing a new place with friends? The app needs 2 minutes to collect that marketing information from your phone before you can start your session or join theirs. It’s ridiculous, especially considering I have two other apps that always start immediately.
Just a few small tweaks to keep things running smoothly wherever your Ikon Pass takes you.
