We can’t wait to get there now!🏂⛄️⛷️🎿 ### 5/5 — All you need *2024-02-15, version 3.1.7* Cheap, accessible, quality Rare for something to tick all three boxes ### 5/5 — New user *2024-02-15, version 3.1.7* Just up loaded this app as heading out to Bansko at the end of Feb Has been great to get the inside track on what where & how Lances vlog and weather updates are fantastic Looking forward to being there ### 5/5 — Easy to use and they accept bitcoin! *2024-02-13, version 3.1.6* What an easy and streamlined experience It makes booking a ski holiday lightning fast ### 5/5 — Simply the best *2024-02-08, version 3.1.6* When in doubt, come to Bansko blog , if you need any information regularly Bansko then this is the app for you, ski rental , transfers , places to eat then download and make your time away go a lot easier. Everything all in one place 10/10 ### 5/5 — Brilliant Experience *2024-02-03, version 3.1.6* I have used the app for the last three years as a reliable source of information and advice but it really came into its own this year when we decided to stray from the relative safety of full catering with passes and ski hire all sorted. We used Ski Mania for all our hire and instruction needs and had a really positive experience. I can’t tell you how much difference a ‘can-do’ attitude and a smile and a welcome at the start and end of the day made to our party. Thanks to Lance and everyone who has a part it in the app. Very highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Exchanging money *2024-01-27, version 3.1.5* Lance is always helpful, messaged him regarding exchange of money within 5minutes he had messaged me back with the details and information I needed. Great help, always follow your blog, the information you give is so helpful so THANK YOU ### 5/5 — Great Bansko App *2023-11-16, version 3.1.2* Great Bansko App. Still find all useful after coming to Bansko for the past 20 years! ### 5/5 — Super helpful *2023-02-22, version 3.0.6* App has been super helpful before & during holiday. We used app to book our transfers pre holiday, which was very easy & good value compared to competitors. We found cheaper ski hire elsewhere but everything else on the app was top notch. Would also recommend their YouTube channel - very handy for pre-holiday info. ### 5/5 — Lance the great *2023-02-04, version 3.0.5* Well done as per usual Lance for the constant updates and live blogs etc.⛷⛷⛷ You keep everyone informed and upbeat even when the snow has been so bad you always seem so optimistic.❄️❄️❄️😊😊 Keep up the great work pal.👍👍 Tony Byrne Liverpool Uk 22 of us will be over next Tuesday 7th so will keep our eye out for you Lance. ### 5/5 — Bansko app *2023-01-31* We use this app virtually everyday, it is great for keeping up to date with the latest news, and weather. ### 5/5 — Lance is great and informative, so is the app. *2023-01-31, version 3.0.5* Thanks for all the hard work Lance.

Love this app and love Bansko thank you very much to the creator of the App it’s fantastic. ### 5/5 — A great skiing information hub and English speaking community service *2022-12-29, version 3.0.5* A great centre for all the information you might need when visiting Bansko. It holds all the relevant information from weather information to the rather excellent live ski cams and the ability to book transport. What really adds to it is a very responsive chat space where your queries will be answered expertly, quickly and honestly helping both the newcomer or the regular visitor to Bansko. ### 5/5 — Must-have app if you’re going to Bansko! *2022-01-23, version 3.0.0* This app is incredibly useful if you’re planning a trip to Bansko. I use it regularly. The features are great. You can book airport transfers, ski hire, lessons, all at a great price. You can also book restaurant tables and even order food to be delivered to you! An absolute must-have if you’re going to Bansko. So much useful information. Well done Lance! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Constant crashes *2020-01-29, version 2.1.10* App crashes frequently, completely pointless!! ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2019-12-23, version 2.1.10* Useless, nothing works on it. Can’t access the cameras as just get a 404 page error. Weather does not work either. ### 1/5 — Not all cams work, no weather *2019-10-11, version 2.1.9* Used the old App every day summer and winter, which had some great features, now ... Well it's not very good... Web cams and blogs yes, everything else disappointing... Can do better ### 2/5 — App crashing on iPhone 14 pro 16.2 *2023-01-16, version 3.0.5* App crashes when I click on Chat in the app ### 3/5 — Regularly need to delete and reload *2023-01-06, version 3.0.5* Does tend to crash fairly frequently if you're in Bansko all season rather than using it for a week or 2 for holiday arrangements. Only way to overcome this is constantly removing app and uploading again. These same comments have been made 2 and 3 years ago.. ### 3/5 — Good info, app lacks QA *2020-01-18, version 2.1.10* It will make your trip to Bansko easier. There are bugs in the app that should be fixed. On iphone 7 with dark mode, you cant read text on half of pages since text does not switch to white color, so you just see black screen... ### 3/5 — Good app but keeps crash quitting *2019-11-21, version 2.1.9* Overall very useful app, only downside is when I look at the chats it crashes after 10s ### 4/5 — Great *2014-03-27, version 1.3.3* Really enjoyed using it. Just the weather doesn't work... The camera etc are great. ### 5/5 — Just perfect for what you need. *2026-02-22, version 3.2.3* I haven’t even been on my trip yet and I can’t thank Lance and the team enough. This app is exactly what you pre and on holiday. A chance to plan ahead and get the answers you don’t have. Truly fantastic. ### 5/5 — Invaluable Resource *2026-02-21, version 3.2.3* We found this app a few years ago when we were planning our first trip to Bansko. The video blog and snow reports are excellent and Lance and the team do a great job. It is a fantastic resource being able to check the cams in one place, see the weather conditions and get and give advice to fellow travellers. We booked our meals through this app which worked well too. Thanks for continuing to run and update it. We used it again this year for our trip. ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-01-31, version 3.2.2* For anyone visiting Bansko, use this app. It has everything you need including Lift/Piste openings, Live Cameras, Weather and a community area for discussion and advice. The app also lets you book Ski Lessons, Hire equipment and arrange Transport. ### 5/5 — Fantastic App *2025-02-15, version 3.1.10* We have relied on this App for years. Invaluable, up to date information. Easy to navigate. First app I look at each morning, especially on the run up to a holiday in Bansko. Lance does a fantastic job, we love his regular vlogs. Definitely worth downloading. ### 5/5 — Gem of an App *2025-02-14, version 3.1.10* We’ve visited the Alps before but never Bansko, Bulgaria. The app has provided us with a vast array of information, reassured us about the unknown and has prepared us and got us excited for our trip. Thanks all behind the scenes keep up the good work we’ll be checking in whilst in resort. ### 5/5 — THE place to easily sort your Bansko Trip *2025-02-09, version 3.1.10* I have been a long time follower of Bansko Blog on YouTube/Socials for the snow reports, tips and updates throughout the season. Loving the vlogs! We booked our private airport transfers through the App this year and our driver Boris was an absolute legend who got us there and back in good time, he was even happy for us to get a much needed McDonald’s coffee stop on the way. Bumped into Lance on the mountain this year and had a nice chat with him and just wanted to write a review on here to show appreciation for Bansko Blog and everything you guys are doing. I also don’t think driver Boris has Instagram lol (where Lance kindly gave him a shout out), so here’s a 5 star rating for driver Boris please, a true champion. I would thoroughly recommend booking via the app, confirmation is immediate with all the details sent by email too. We will most definitely be back next year and booking transfers, ski hire etc easily through the app, Cheers!!! ### 5/5 — Great Experience *2024-12-25, version 3.1.9* A must have for anyone who is visiting Bansko ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-12-13, version 3.1.9* Great app wonderful project ### 5/5 — Bansko App *2024-04-17, version 3.1.7* Fantastic app. All the info you need with a couple of clicks. Really intuitive and user friendly. An essential for any Bansko ski tripper. 10 out of 10! ### 5/5 — Great app *2024-04-16, version 3.1.7* Very helpful App Lots of good information and easy to use. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
