Simple and clean

I had a lot of issues with the old layout, but as of today they have released a new update that has fixed a lot of those issues.

I like that everything (mountains, passes, forecasts) is not crammed onto one screen anymore and is split at the top

Brilliant snow forecasting

Being an Australian skiing in North America I am usually unfamiliar with weather patterns and snow characteristics. I have used OpenSnow for many many years to help plan a trip ahead of time and then use it while on the ski field. Does a great job.

Not very useful

Limited forecasts, assumes you live in the US and you have to go into settings to make the units and formatting work. This should be part of a setup wizard I hate US built apps with no awareness that there’s a world outside that bubble. Season passes are missing mountains (Hutt isn’t on mountain collective for example). The UI looks ok. But without paying for a subscription it doesn’t really deliver anything that google won’t give you for free.

Developer Response ,
