App is useful and reliable in terms of tracking . Can recommend ### 4/5 — Zoom/orientamento bussola *2026-03-09, version 4.0.9* Orientamento bussola troppo sensibile, appena si sfiora lo schermo per zoommare, l’orientamento cambia senza volerlo. Si fatica successivamente e riposizionarsi su Nord. (Ci vorrebbe un orientamento automatico tipo Google Maps) Per il resto perfetto ### 4/5 — Top mit Mängeln beim Tracking *2026-01-26* Sehr gute App, im Vergleich zu anderen ist das Pro Abo auch preiswert. Die Übersicht zum Wetter in Skigebieten, mit direkt erreichbarer Pistenkarte ist top. Die Übersicht beim Tracking gefällt mir, allerdings scheinen die Geschwindigkeitsdaten sehr ungenau zu sein. Im direkten Vergleich mit u.a. Slopes zeigt mir Bergfex nie mehr als ~60km/h (selbst bei ~90km/h), während Slopes keine Probleme hat, höhere Geschwindigkeiten zu tracken. Hohe Geschwindigkeiten werden mehr oder weniger abgeschnitten. Meine Vermutung ist, dass weniger Datenpunkte gesammelt werden und die Daten dadurch ungenauer sind. Der Akkuverbrauch bei bergfex ist auch besser als bei Slopes, das ist mir aber das schlechtere Tracking nicht wert. Zusätzlich sehr schön wäre eine 3D Karte. **Developer response:** Servus aus Graz, danke für deine Bewertung und dein positives Feedback! Gerne würden wir uns das Thema Geschwindigkeit näher ansehen. Bitte melde dich kurz per Mail an 'app@bergfex.at' bei uns. Vielen Dank und viele Grüße, Team bergfex ### 4/5 — Great app *2026-01-05, version 4.0.4* the speed is like 5 km/h slower ### 2/5 — Nepresna *2025-12-31, version 4.0.3* Casto pocasi neodpovida predpovedi, hlasi snezeni a prsi. Aplikace Windy je mnohem presnejsi a odpovida skutecnosti. Je to skoda, protoze Bergfex mam oblibenou ### 2/5 — Sellaronda síelés *2025-02-08, version 3.6.7* I wanted to use the map to navigate the Sellaronda, but it's impossible. It doesn't mark the slopes with numbers or colors. It's a disappointment for me. ### 3/5 — Bad ski distance track *2025-01-12, version 3.6.6* It now show real distance skied. It show total distance (with ski lifts). I dont want to see total distance. Only what i ski ### 4/5 — Super App, aber… *2024-12-20* Die App ist sehr übersichtlich gestaltet. Man kann schnell gucken, wie das Wetter wird oder wie es auf den Webcams aussieht. Cool ist auch die Tracking-Funktion, mit welcher man seinen Skitag perfekt tracken kann und im Anschluss sich dann den Weg im Skigebiet und die Abfahrten detailliert analysieren kann. Das einzig blöde ist, dass das Tracking auch schon mal von alleine abbricht. Wenn man das rechtzeitig merkt, kann man das Tracking jedoch nicht fortsetzen und muss ein neues Tracking starten. Die beiden Trackings die dann den Tag über entstanden sind, kann man leider nicht zusammenfügen, um dann wieder einen Gesamtüberblick über den Skitag zu haben. Das wäre das einzige Feature, was noch fehlen würde. Ich würde mich sehr freuen, wenn man das noch hinzufügen könnte. ### 4/5 — Appréciation *2024-11-21* Toujours simple à naviguer et renseignements précis ### 5/5 — Great app for skier *2024-11-13, version 3.6.6* I really like to use this app on a season basis. One of things that could improve is the ability to share my fav ski resorts with people not using the app ### 4/5 — Good *2024-10-11, version 3.6.6* The weather forecast needs improvement. ### 4/5 — Widgets - changing location not working *2024-06-28, version 3.6.6* Probably sinice last update I can not change location on widgets. ### 5/5 — Velmi dobrá *2024-03-19, version 3.6.5* Zatím nezklamala ### 5/5 — T *2024-03-17, version 3.6.5* Op ### 5/5 — Brilliant forecasting app *2024-03-17* I’ve been using the Bergfex Ski weather app for a few years now and it is the only app that actually and reliably gets the forecast correct - vital for when you are in the mountains and have to plan for the weather conditions. It snows when the app says it’s due to snow and the sun appears when the app says it’s due to appear. I’ve given up using any other forecast as Bergfex is always so accurate. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Te păcălește *2026-01-09, version 4.0.4* Eu am plăti abonamentul pe un an și nu mi-l dă ### 1/5 — Nonsense forecast *2025-04-01, version 3.6.7* Whenever this app shows there'll be a dump of snow, it ends up being just a few centimeters. Forecast the day before 35cm, reality 8cm of new snow. Forecast 10cm, reality - dust on crust. This behavior is consistent for at least two seasons throughout various resorts in Alps. Long story short, forecast in this app is pretty much useless. ### 1/5 — No good *2025-02-10, version 3.6.7* Just paid for one year but cannot get any info at all keeps saying no new data. Waste of money. ### 1/5 — Terrible reliability (for ski areas in the Alps) *2025-01-28* Very poor forecast reliability, most of the times it misses the mark completely and only updates with actual weather conditions the day of, when the weather conditions are already visible with the naked eye. Meteoblue seems to deliver far better accuracy. I will give it another chance and if this continues I will cancel the subscription and delete the app. ### 1/5 — Reklamy *2024-12-23, version 3.6.6* Zaplatíte roční poplatek a stejně v aplikaci máte reklamu 😵‍💫 ### 1/5 — not trustworthy *2023-04-18* Used for several years. Starting from the last year is not trustworthy at all: always shows much better skiable conditions that they are in reality. Looks like they are paid from ski-resorts to atract more skiers. Complete disappointment. **Developer response:** Hello from Graz, thank you for your feedback! We are sorry that the information about the conditions of the slopes was not correct. If you notice something like that, you are welcome to contact us at any time (app@bergfex.at) and we will take a closer look. Best regards, Team bergfex ### 1/5 — Abbonamento pagato servizio sospeso *2023-04-05, version 3.6.2* Ho regolarmente pagato l’abbonamento annuale con addebito su carta, ma non posso più utilizzare le funzioni pro.correggete ### 1/5 — Pas toute la France. *2023-01-15* Pas Auvergne ni Pyrénées **Developer response:** Hello from Graz, thanks for your message! You can definitely find ski resorts in these areas in our app. The reason why you probably didn't find anything is that in the app the ski resorts are structured by region and there is no region called "Pyrénéés" - that's just the name of the mountain range. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us at app@bergfex.at. Best regards, Team bergfex ### 1/5 — Weather forecast not in English. *2023-01-14* Everything about this app is in English except the local forecast descriptions and you can’t copy the text or translate it. Very disappointed **Developer response:** Hello from Graz, thanks for your feedback! We are currently working on a version in which the forecasts will be translated automatically, in addition we will make the text copyable. I can't give you an exact time frame yet, but such an update will come. For further questions please contact app@bergfex.at. Best regards, Team bergfex ### 1/5 — Mah? *2022-03-12, version 3.5.2* Mi son sempre trovato bene, ma adesso ad auronzo vede molto più freddo di quello che c’è. Tipo da negativo da app a 9 gradi reali ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Une référence au quotidien *2026-05-09* Fiable, pratique , efficace et précis à chaque instant ### 5/5 — Super app *2026-03-06, version 4.0.9* Stále ji používám. Najdu tam vše o lyžařském středisku ❤️ ### 5/5 — Diana *2026-02-17, version 4.0.6* Top voor alle informatie 👍 ### 5/5 — Top *2026-01-31, version 4.0.5* Top ### 5/5 — The best all-round mountain-app out there *2026-01-19, version 4.0.5* I’ve been skiing for countless years, and honestly this app always nails the weather forecast. Not laggy, no bugs, just a pleasing, neatly working app. Would rate 6 stars if that was an option. ### 5/5 — Sehr hilfreich im Skiurlaub *2025-02-10, version 3.6.7* Diese App ist sehr hilfreich im Skiurlaub, wenn man nicht den schnell zerknitterbaren Papierpistenplan mit sich rumschleppen möchte. Hier kann man auch sehen, welche Skilifte genau geöffnet sind und man kann die Pistenpläne zu nahezu allen Skigebieten der Welt abrufen. Besser als einige andere Anbieter! ### 5/5 — Nagyon hasznos *2025-02-10, version 3.6.7* Jól használható, pontos adatok a hóhelyzetről, felvonókról, évek óta használom és csak ajánlani tudom! ### 5/5 — Ski *2025-02-01, version 3.6.7* Beste app voor alle info skigebieden ### 5/5 — Ultra pratique *2025-01-26* Je me sers de cette appli tous les jours au ski. Pour la météo ils sont très fiable. J aime le fait de mettre en favoris de nombreuses stations en Europe. Les webcams sont également très pratiques pour voir si les sommets sont au soleil. Il y a également le plan des pistes qui permet d avoir une idée avant d arriver en station. Bravo. ### 5/5 — 👍 *2024-12-09, version 3.6.6* Super ⛷👍👏🏻 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
