Too much $

Used to get some forecast for free, now the app is useless without subscription

I love the app but

This app provides me snow depth snow coverage and snow amounts. Which is all I need but I would love to see more accurate coverage maps instead of dots on my screen as large as a whole mountain. If a better snow depth map was In future make sure to add a more exact snow coverage and depth to the maps as the current snow maps look like a guess instead of a reality.

Open Snow

GREAT App! It helps a ton as I am planning terrain for my ski lessons!

The Best

If there is a better App with the development pace of OpenSnow I have yet to find it

The best!

As a mountain guide I am consistently checking the weather across the world. I used this app through my month of guiding through the Alps in April and when I returned for the month of August. It’s one of the best platforms for every season and I am always giving this to my clients to check. I highly recommend.

Permanent Price Increases and No more affordable tiers

I have used this app for many years. I understand the need to make a profit but $49 a year is very expensive for what this is. The last few years have seen a ~$20 a year subscription pushed to $49 with tiers removed. I only use this app during winter so that value proposition is low. I prefer to see overhead dropped so that it’s more affordable. The economy is hard right now and I’m considering other options for the first time rather than just paying the massive hikes in price.

Excellent weather app

Excellent weather app. Use it daily for summer and winter

Interactive maps

Love how easy the toggle is for the legends on the maps view, great user interface.

Best App ever

We have been using this app to do all our snow skiing planning for the past 8 years. We are retired and ski 140 days a season in North America. We are very flexible where we can go and I am very data driven. Open Snow provides everything we need and is very user friendly.

We also access the smoke maps during the wildfire season to plan our summer activities.

My Daily Addiction to Open Snow

As a storm chaser, weather enthusiast the past 30 years and someone using multiple apps for weather forecasting in our rural mountain community, I need to find something that worked rapidly and had the data I needed in one place. While I still need several apps I no longer need 5-6.

StormNet has been an incredible add to the OpenSnow platform and has been EXTREMELY accurate in many ways for severe weather forecasting and helping zero in where to look.

The team has been responsive to emails and future requests and this is now my daily start to see what tomorrow may bring, what is here today and being able to rapidly see many forecasts with data not available in a single pane like it is with OpenSnow.

It’s not just for Snow. Used to be but now is a great year round app to use for weather without annoying ads and having to flip all over to get the information.

Great job OpenSnow Team, you are my daily weather app!

My go-to for snow reports

I use OpenSnow regularly and find all the info accurate and helpful. Highly recommend!

Best snow and fire/ smoke info

All in one place, super detailed. Love this app

Best weather app, especially for skiers

Excellent weather app, they’re constantly adding extra features and super responsive to contacting them. It’s the best weather app for accuracy, especially if you’re a skier or interested in snow!

Best of the best

OpenSnow offers the best, most comprehensive, advanced, and user friendly weather products out there. As a professional ski guide I depend on accurate forecasts to stay safe and point me towards the best snow. I’ve been impressed with OpenSnow’s accuracy and innovation over the past several years I’ve been a regular user. Well worth the cost!

This is the app to trust!

I use this app when I’m planning my own outings, as well as planning for my ski clients. Definitely the best app out there!

The absolute BEST source.

I am a Ski Pro in Aspen and check the app multiple times a day to give my clients the best possible info for localized mtn forecasts. I show my clients the app so they can download it for themselves and check weather for their entire stay !

Wow!

Best ski weather App. Interface , displays & accuracy are spot on!! Thx Open Snow!

Weather’s Cool Cousin

OpenSnow is the first app I check no matter the time of year or activity. The favorite list is a key player in the summers, showing me where the sun is shining the best.
For the winter, the areas I track the fx seems to hold very accurate. With the addition of being easily able to retrieve weather station data as well, open snow feels like an all in one easy to use tool to tract storms and get an idea of what I want to look for in a snowpack for work and play.

Never alert

I set up alerts and it just never worked during my free trial. There were definitely Alerts during that time. Probably won't ever use this app again.

Has no match

Works well for high alpine hiking & chasing powder. There is no match to this app.
