User reviews

Sick!

So sick 🤙🏻❄️🏔️

Avalanche Inclinomer

Simple, easy and it works. Awareness of slope angles is crucial to safe travel in avalanche terrain.

Worth the money

Functional, practical, reliable. I’ve been using this app for several years in the backcountry; the only minor issue is the voice-reader function doesn’t always work. A good-quality tool overall.

Thank you Steve!

Easy to use and understand. Happy to support Steve for the price of $3.99. Cheers!

How does it work?

It’s a nifty tool, but it would be helpful if there was a video showing how to use it when sighting directly up or down a hill. Couldn’t find any info online.
