## What is Snonav?

We believe every skier and snowboarder should have access to dependable navigation when out on the mountain. As the only true navigation app for the slopes, Snonav can be personalized for in-ear turn-by-turn directions, allowing you to always feel safe, in control and maximize your time on the mountain. With our Siri Shortcuts, you can just activate Siri and say “Hey Snonav”, “take me to Poppy Fields” and audio navigation will turn on and guide you based on your set preferences.  We’re the only app endorsed by the National Ski Patrol for safety.  Download the app today and make the most of every ski day!


New 3D Maps will blow you away.  You’ve never seen the mountain like this before.  Route colors, contours, true emersion in the slopes.  


ROUTING
- Find the quickest, safest and best routes from A to B
- Set your start point and destination and Snonav will instantly give you the best and quickest route.
- Set your ski ability level and preferences and Snonav will find the best and quickest route tailored for you so you can explore more of the mountain with confidence.
- No more worries about ending up on a route outside your ability by mistake.


LIVE AUDIO NAVIGATION
- Live in-ear audio instructions at every turn - with no more stopping to look at the map you can enjoy the pure pleasure of skiing with uninterrupted flow.
- Dynamic re-routing, so if you make a wrong turn, stumble upon a closed lift or accidentally go off the trail, Snonav automatically informs and re-routes you.
- No need to worry about internet connection. All mapping data is downloaded to your phone so the app works offline, giving you full routing and navigation functionality even when you don't have a data connection.


GROUP SKI (SnoGroups)
- Share your location or a meet-up location and let Snonav guide everyone there, so there’s less time wasted hanging around.
- More group ski features will be coming soon like real-time location sharing and ‘meet-in-the-middle'.


RESORTS
We are constantly expanding the list of resorts mapped, currently we have over 175 worldwide and growing.

### 1/5 — Had its day

*2026-07-03, version 1.6.0*

This was a great programme which I used for 2 seasons  to great affect.    Now u think company has gone broke.

The error: "Tignes map download broken. 

Keeps giving 'no such version 2.0.3 snonav' error on iOS. 

And. Support emails are just bouncing."  
RIP. Snonav

### 1/5 — Horrible app, literally NO SUPPORT

*2025-11-27, version 1.6.0*

Worst app in the App Store - if zero stars was an option, that would be my rating. They charge a subscription despite falsely listing resorts as being included even though once you download the app and pay for the subscription, you’ll find the resorts you want are NOT there. 
Quite literally, NONE of the support or other contacts listed on their website work - all bounce back undelivered. Apple: REMOVE this bogus app, it should not be allowed!!!

### 1/5 — Do not buy until you know it covers your area!  No IDAHO

*2025-01-15, version 1.5.9*

Does not do Sun Valley Idaho

### 1/5 — Is the app still current?

*2024-12-01, version 1.5.9*

Three of us are going skiing to the three valleys 14th December. We would like to use this app for navigation and the group features. 

However, we initially understood that we could buy daily, or 6 day passes but the only option available is yearly at £20.This is far too expensive when there’s 3 licenses to purchase for only 6 days.

Please can you let us know if the daily or 6 day passes will be available again? The email on your website is not valid to ask the question.

### 4/5 — V good but some improvements needed

*2024-01-30, version 1.5.9*

This has the potential to be an excellent app but after using for a couple of days in the 3valleys, I would really push for the following improvements:

1) The routing is not 100%. In one case it seemed to suggest we take a cable car down instead of skiing down, which was a bit weird, but generally it was good.

2) Each instruction should be stated twice. You can ask Siri to repeat but it would be very useful to have each instruction stated a couple of times. Often you are focused on your skiing and it can be noisy with wind etc. I did have all the volume options set to max.

3) There should be more routing filters. For example we like to avoid cable cars where possible. If a route is then not possible - it should tell the user such.

4) Routing filters like red/blue/black pistes should have a ‘preferred’ option rather than a total elimination filter. We are good skiers but today we wanted a relaxed day skiing, so would be really useful to say: Please stick to blues if possible but red/black ok if needed.

4) Add suggested tours for each ski resort. Not essential but then you really don’t need to bother with a map. At the moment- it’s more like - decide where you want to go and the app will take you there.

Other than that it is actually a very good app and I would recommend to others. It takes half a day to get used to how it works etc.

### 1/5 — The will delete your negative review.

*2023-12-24, version 1.5.9*

Buyer beware 

I had tried this app on several resorts.   It didn’t work well.  I left a negative review.   They offered me a free subscription to change the review.   They offered to take my feedback and make the app better.  After not responding to my emails that they asked for I gave up.    

Then they deleted my negative review!  

Beware on what you read for this app.  They only allow the positive reviews the be on this site.   I have no idea how Apple allows this to happen!

Ski safe.

### 5/5 — Great 3d map and navigation

*2023-01-06, version 1.5.9*

Best ski navigation app I’ve found, 3d maps are smoother than FATMAP in my opinion and show you how wide the runs are.
The ability to drop pins for start and end points and chose types of runs to avoid is great for beginners and people useless at reading maps.

### 5/5 — Incredible product

*2022-12-23, version 1.5.9*

This is an amazing app that helped my group of friends and I who are all different ability levels to be able to ski together on our trip! Super easy to use and great quality of service!

### 5/5 — Game changing!

*2022-12-23, version 1.5.9*

I’m a novice skier and the first time I was at Big Sky I made a wrong turn and ended up on a trail that was way too difficult for me! Snonav makes sure this doesn’t ever happen and gives me ways to enjoy myself and meet up with friends and they can go have fun on the more challenging slopes!  This is the tech skiing needed!

### 5/5 — SNONAV IS AMAZING

*2022-12-23, version 1.5.9*

We had to rush to the bottom of the mountain to get to my sons ski school pick up and we were in the back bowls, with no resort guide or helper insight and we had someone tell us to get snonav and it helped us get to him at the bottom of the mountain just in time for his pick up. THANK YOU SNONAV!!!!
