I haven’t found a better cheap app. I would like to see a few more states like average speed, time spent skiing, integration with strava, lift and run lines. Google maos has most of lifts.its great that it color codes the run you made by speed, but they could add a key. Usually i think of red as faster but green is faster here. It would be nice to be able to color code the runs by other things like gradient, sinuosity, run number etc. Its great that it doesn’t track you going up the lifts though. ### 2/5 — Not accurate!! *2023-12-21, version 3.6* The Run count is WAY off, and won’t tell you how many runs you have done till you hit stop for the day. This app is terrible. Won’t let you try it. I was forced to purchase and even asked for a refund. ### 1/5 — Not marked trails *2021-03-07, version 3.2.5* Just a plain map ### 4/5 — Need Legend *2021-02-13, version 3.2.5* I want to know how fast each color is exactly. I want to know how fast I’m going at each point of my track! But there’s no legend...(eg to tell how fast light yellow is for example). ### 1/5 — App *2020-12-12, version 3.2.5* Like the old version better, bigger digits and was super easy to use Why all the changes?? ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2020-12-05, version 3.2.4* Bring back Trace Snow! This app lost 2 sessions data, no photo loads, not sure it works in Canada or anywhere outside USA ### 4/5 — Hament Hament Hament Hament Hament Hament *2020-06-11, version 2.2.2* Hament ### 4/5 — Traversing seems to stop it from tracking sometimes *2020-03-14* It seems like it stops tracking if I’m traversing much at all, sometimes you aren’t strictly going downhill, if you go quick downhill then whip up after where your elevation increases again then ride for a bit keeping a steady elevation while you traverse is when it stops tracking. Other than this it tracks very well and uses only a tiny bit of battery power, I like that you can edit runs so you can delete if you accidentally left it tracking while you drive to grab lunch in between runs or go back home without stopping the tracker, exporting is really cool too. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-03-10* Super practical and functional, works great. Battery use is minimal; I’m able to track runs all day and don’t have to keep in airplane mode. I reached out to developer on a suggestion to improve app, and guy was receptive to idea. Couple ways it could be better, but as is works amazing. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pay after download *2026-02-04, version 3.21* Does not mention that it is a pay app before it is downloaded! Sick of it! ### 1/5 — Posting *2026-01-15, version 3.21* Unable to post my stats-without sending or promoting app for developer. What a rip! ### 1/5 — Confusing *2025-04-05, version 3.15* Confusing ### 1/5 — Ski *2025-03-14, version 3.15* I don’t know how to start it ### 1/5 — 5 bucks *2024-12-20, version 3.14* Free to download but then 5 bucks to track you is crazy. ### 1/5 — You can’t even do it With out a pro subscription *2024-12-17, version 3.14* I think this is an honest one don’t buy ### 1/5 — Nothing unless you upgrade! *2024-02-18, version 3.9* This app does not work unless you pay to upgrade first. Don’t be fooled like I was, didn’t see any notice of this. Screen says press the play button, all you get is an upgrade screen. Close that and still nothing. Bait and fail I guess ### 1/5 — Not free *2024-01-23, version 3.7* Not a free app. In order to track your session you have to subscribe and pay the fee. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2022-02-27, version 3.2.6* Can’t find the gps ever ### 1/5 — Junk *2022-01-14, version 3.2.6* This is total crap, you have no ski run names not even a live interactive map! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Beautiful & simple + weather forecast?! 🤌 *2023-03-29, version 3.4* LOVE Ski Tracker! Just wish the map overlay was snowy winter time. Must have board/ski tracker ### 5/5 — Super handy app! *2023-03-27* Got this app in Colorado on a ski trip because I liked the wsdot and CDOT traffic apps this guy makes, and it’s been great! Super easy to start and stop, and it’s easy to delete runs if you accidentally leave it on in the car (which I always do). I haven’t been comparing it to anything, but it seems pretty accurate for distance, speed, and elevation. Would recommend! ### 5/5 — Simple to use. Exactly what I was looking for *2022-10-08* I wanna check conditions for the places I’ll go this season, and it sounds cool to track my sessions as well! Great app. ### 5/5 — Battery lasts, no login *2022-03-09* Love that if you set it on airplane mode, your phone gps will still track everything. Battery lasted all day on the slopes. Didn’t need to make an account, which I love. ### 5/5 — Works great! *2022-01-01* Used the Ski Tracker app for the first time yesterday and it works awesome! It provides all the info you could ask for and is extremely easy to use. Update: I’ve been using this for 3 seasons now and couldn’t be happier with it!! **Developer response:** Thank you for the review! ### 5/5 — Thanks *2021-12-29, version 3.2.6* Awesome app so ez to use. ### 5/5 — Beginner skier *2021-03-07, version 3.2.5* Real easy to use. Doesn’t use much battery at all. Great to mark your progress. Fun to share and compare with friends. Thanks ### 5/5 — Great App *2020-10-17, version 3.2.3* 10.2020 Review Update: Very anxious to get out and use this app again. If you are trying to decide which app to choose look no further! Having used other apps I can tell you this is the best. Added edit bonus is the developers response to questions. You will not be disappointed with this app. Former SnoCru user for years. This is much better! I usually don’t pay for an app. I sent an email because I wanted clarification on pricing. I was shocked to get a response within hours! Then to find out the $2.99 is a one time fee (others charge by season) I downloaded it. Now that I have used it there is no need to try any other tracker. Very impressed and very happy! ### 5/5 — Simple and efficient *2020-03-14* This app did exactly what I needed it to and was so easy to use. I had a question for the developer and got clarification within a few hours on email. As for battery usage, I skied 7 hours with the tracker running in the background, listening to audiobooks all day and frequently checking texts/emails and ended the day with 49% power, so you’ll have no problem using this all day long on the mountain. Really happy with the purchase and the stats the app provides; highly recommended! ### 5/5 — Just remember to turn it on *2020-03-14* I’m impressed with the detail recorded and the simple interface. Takes less battery than I thought on iPhone 11. If only I was better at remembering to hit record at the beginning of each day. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
