### 5/5 — Thanks to UAC

*2014-02-16, version 1.1*

They're keeping us safe out there,... thanks to all the developers and snow forecasters! Appreciated!

### 5/5 — Sweet app

*2014-02-11, version 1.1*

All the info you need in one place.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-02-09, version 1.1*

This is a great app. I love the convenience of checking backcountry conditions from my phone.

### 5/5 — Donka UAC staff

*2014-02-05, version 1.1*

More reliable than the morning's newspaper... And more interesting too!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-01-26, version 1.1*

Way easier than the site from a phone

### 5/5 — Great App

*2014-01-25, version 1.1*

This portable version of the UACs website is great. The app is fast and responsive . You can load it before you go and have all the info in your pocket to refer to in the field.

### 5/5 — Very informative and well built

*2014-01-21, version 1.1*

This app is my go-to source of information on snow conditions in Utah. I check it every morning before I go snowmobiling. The UAC does an amazing job keeping it up to date on current snow and avalanche conditions.

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2014-01-17, version 1.1*

User friendly, makes sense, updated regularly, helpful when touring, and has emergency numbers if you need it (hopefully not).

### 5/5 — Must Have

*2014-01-15, version 1.1*

Things have come a long way in the past couple of years! Awesome app for anyone that likes to get outdoors in Utah. Even if you don't backcountry travel, the information regarding current conditions  and links to various weather sources is awesome.  More information makes you a more independent decision maker...so know before you go!

### 5/5 — All of it

*2014-01-14, version 1.1*

This is a great app. All the info you need before heading out, including all the good weather links, all in one place. ALL.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2014-01-07, version 1.1*

Easy-to-use and looks great. The best way to stay safe out there's out is knowledge.

### 5/5 — Awesome app thank you!!!

*2013-12-31, version 1.1*

Easy to use w tons of info

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Was nice...now doesn’t work

*2018-12-04, version 1.3*

App no longer works with my current phone.

### 1/5 — UAC App

*2015-01-10, version 1.2*

This is supposed to be an update to optimize use with iPhone 5s and 6.  I have had nothing but trouble and there are so many problems it would take too long to list them all here.  The camera function does not work, you can't pinch the screen in and out or rotate the phone for wider reading.  It locks up in a useless expanded mode....... Enough already.  Am I the only one having problems with the optimized version?  What am I doing wrong?  I reboot and have even deleted and reloaded the app several times hoping to get lucky.  The old version always worked fine.  Hey guys, if it ain't broke......don't fix it.

### 2/5 — Update broke mountain weather page

*2018-12-24, version 1.4*

After installing the December2018 update, the mountain weather page no longer loads.

### 2/5 — Good God

*2016-01-29, version 1.3*

I don't mind this app but can you add some freaking padding to the text cause it gets cut off and it's really irritating to read.

### 3/5 — Good start

*2015-08-02, version 1.3*

Nice to have easy to view app for this info, but… If you don’t use the report submittal tool, its not much different from the website, which they could just make responsive, and skip the app. What would make this app shine is if they could restyle the raw weather and snow data (that so many backcountry users end up accessing anyway) into a mobile friendly format.

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2024-12-13*

I use this app all the time. However I am making a review in hopes that some issues are fixed. 

Number one, the “mountain weather forecast” page literally never shows the U of U weather model plumes, and now I am unable to find them on the U Atmospheric Science website as well, so I am at a loss. It would be very nice to view these updated charts within the app as it used to work. 

Number two, the “snow report” icon underneath the “weather” menu does not work at all. It unfortunately seems like things are moving along in time and the developers off this app are not keeping up. Would be great if someone fixed these issues :)) I love this app otherwise

### 4/5 — Useful and adequate

*2020-07-22, version 1.5*

It’s nothing special— just a skin of the website— but it is useful to have one-click access. The more readily available this information is and the easier it is to find and interpret, the safer we all are.

### 4/5 — Avy savvy for Utah backcountry.

*2014-02-10, version 1.1*

Convenient avy forecast on your phone and links to UAC contacts. Must have for those searching for powder stashes.

### 5/5 — Great

*2015-01-02, version 1.1*

Great app,good up to date info, easy to use

### 5/5 — Great App

*2014-12-28, version 1.1*

Great App, full of useful information.

UAC really has done well with this app.

### 5/5 — Irreplaceable

*2014-12-24, version 1.1*

A bargain; even it cost $10. A must-have tool for anyone going in the backcountry.

### 5/5 — Must have for Wasatch skiing

*2014-11-25, version 1.1*

A nice readable version of the daily Avalanche forecast right on your phone. Must have.

### 5/5 — Looks great!

*2014-11-06, version 1.1*

I can't wait until we get some snow and I can really use this thing. Awesome that the Avalanche center made this mobile app! Looking forward to a fun and safe winter season! I just moved here  from Colorado and the caic should make an app like this!

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2014-04-11, version 1.1*

Very well done app that actually makes me follow the avi conditions more closely! I especially love the easy interface for keeping track of recent observations from the BC.
