SKIORA

SKIORA brings the essentials of a ski day in Georgia into one clear app. EXPLORE THE RESORT View piste and lift geometry for Gudauri, Bakuriani, Goderdzi, Tetnuldi and Hatsvali. Resort maps use attributed OpenStreetMap data and distinguish known geometry from information that is not currently verified. RECORD YOUR RIDE Start, pause, resume and finish a ride with explicit controls. SKIORA estimates distance, speed, elevation gain and descent. Raw GPS samples are not uploaded automatically. They remain in the protected device journal unless you explicitly export GPX and choose a recipient in the operating-system share sheet; the selected recipient handles the user-shared file under its own terms. Ride summaries, statistics and a bounded display route can sync to your account. SIGN IN AND STAY IN SYNC A Firebase-backed account is required. Register with email and password or sign in with Google or Apple. Your profile, trip, ride summaries, statistics, display routes and private groups are linked to your account. ASK WITH SOURCES Ask the source-backed assistant about the selected resort. When online, the question, selected resort, app language, a random request ID and client time are sent over encrypted HTTPS to watsonstudio.app. Precise location, Firebase UID and ride routes are never sent. If the service is unavailable, SKIORA falls back to bundled reviewed resort data. Answers include citations and freshness dates. PRIVATE LIVE GROUPS Create or join a group with a private code. After separate consent, the single current group record contains only your exact latitude/longitude, an expiry of up to two minutes, a coarse piste/lift/freeride/stopped/unknown state and an optional human-readable piste/lift name. It excludes GPS accuracy, sample time, ride/session IDs, routes and location history. Each update replaces the previous point. PLAN A GEORGIA MOUNTAIN DAY Use one place for resort maps, official ski-pass links and a growing structure for transport, accommodation, food and off-snow activities as verified information becomes available. All current features are free; SKIORA Plus is not offered for sale. Location permission is requested when you tap Start, before recording begins. SKIORA is a planning and recording aid, not a rescue, avalanche, navigation-safety or official resort-control service. Always follow official closures, on-mountain signs, patrol instructions and local law.
