AlpiCheck: Ski & Avalanche

Please note: the app is available in German only. Where to ski on Saturday? AlpiCheck suggests up to five open ski areas, and your group votes via a link, no app needed. Plus the official avalanche danger for 165 ski areas in Austria, Switzerland, Italy and Bavaria. PLAN YOUR SKI DAY • Pick a starting point and a day: AlpiCheck compares the open ski areas nearby by new snow, sunshine, crowds, driving time and danger level and shows up to five suggestions • Vote via link: send the suggestions to your group via WhatsApp or any other app. Voting happens in the browser, without the app and without an account. Plan and votes are end-to-end encrypted • Set the destination: you see the votes and pick the ski area for everyone • Find suitable ski areas by starting point, skill level and size AVALANCHE BULLETIN • Danger level 1–5 on the European scale, split by elevation where the warning service provides it • Avalanche problems with the affected aspects, tendency and the warning service's text • Valid bulletins only: if one has expired, is missing or the service is unreachable, you see "no current bulletin" with a link to the official bulletin, never an old or estimated level • Offline bulletin: save it in advance; without signal the app shows it as long as it is valid WEATHER AND SNOW • Snow depth in the valley and on the mountain from the nearest suitable weather station, with name, elevation, distance and time; without a station, a model value marked "≈" • Temperature, wind, new snow and snow line from open data of the weather services • Crowd forecast: an estimate based on school holidays, weekday and weather MAP • 165 ski areas, each in the official EAWS colour of its danger level and with the level as a number • Optional slope-angle layer, standard, satellite and hybrid map, ski area search IN THE TERRAIN • 3-second check: inclinometer and compass provide slope angle and aspect, the bulletin the level. The result is a rough orientation using a simplified rule of thumb based on the reduction method. It does not clear a slope • Checklists for off-piste, cross-country and alpine skiing, plus your own lists EMERGENCY • SOS at the top of the overview opens the emergency screen; quick access always dials 112 • Below it, the mountain rescue of the country you are in (Austria 140, Switzerland 1414, Valais 144, Italy 118), with a note on the mobile network. • Show and share your coordinates, emergency steps, reporting an avalanche without buried people to the right place ALSO INCLUDED • Home Screen and Lock Screen widget with the danger level for your region • My season: ski days, distance and calories from your ski workouts in Apple Health (optional, read-only) • Light or dark appearance, Dynamic Type, VoiceOver and Reduce Motion During the off-season (usually May to November) the warning services publish no bulletins.
