snoww: track your skiing 4+

Used this app through two seasons and it was good until I switched phone to iPhone X from 7. Now it’s not showing realistic max speed no matter what I do. Even when I took black straight down, no turns it showed 38km/h 😂. I think my daughter goes faster😁. App is very friendly and useful with a lot of functions but clocking max speed it’s not it’s strong side.

Me and my brother was both using the app on our I watches on a days ski we managed according to the app to complete about 60km unfortunately my brothers I watch died right at the end of the days ski and the app didn’t save his data so the whole 7hour day just vanished because his watch died, but I thought never mind because I have mine we can look at that when we get back. So when we got back I could see the stats on my I watch but they wouldn’t upload to my phone and my phone would still say I hadn’t completed any activities even though it was tracking all day long. The app on my watch decided to bug out so now a whole 8hours of ski data has been lost really annoying because it seems others haven’t had a problem and to be honest everything was going great until right at the end which is why it’s even more frustrating! Wouldn’t recommend because of this reason

This does lots of great stuff, looks good and is very user-friendly. The map view is really handy to see where you’ve been at the end of the day. It also doesn’t drain your battery too much.

The only drawback so far is that the app can’t spot when someone is in a car rather than on a piste. If you look into the leaderboards for max speed, very few of the top scorers achieved their speeds on piste (whether accidentally or otherwise!) For social use, this makes it a bit useless. But for tracking your own speed/distance/route, I can’t fault it!
