Ratings and Reviews
Sly attempt to get people to buy app!
Most of the content is subscription based and is only found out after buying. Should remove pictures of piste maps etc from app download page. Subscription costs £4 per month!
Good app, a few suggestions...
It's good. Like the website is has lots of good info, and in many ways is easier to read than the website. However, I have a few suggestions...
1) I don't think we need to see a fancy snow photo at the top of each resort summary screen. I'd rather see more info on the screen rather than having to scroll to see temps etc. The Webcam, 6-Day, Twitter etc. icons on the right could be bigger too. Maybe have these lined up across the top instead of the photo?
2) It doesn't remember whether you select 'Base', 'Mid' or 'Top' so you have to keep going back to Top each time you go into the app. A bit annoying considering I doubt many people really want to know what the snow conditions are like at the Base.
3) It seems to want to refresh each time I go in and out of info screens. For example, from 6 Day Forecast back to summary screen. Not sure if it's just my old 3G but it seems very slow doing this.
4) Seems a bit slow in general, but again this could just be my old 3G?
Other than that, great app. Happy to pay the €0.79 price.
