OpenSummit for Negative User Reviews

✓ Do not get this app!It’s rare that I am so angry that I feel the need to write a negative review but I have to comment. This is a standard weather app that gives basic information provided by the NOAA. The free version gives very little of this information and only for some trailheads and peaks. I purchased the all access subscription and found it to have the same information you can get for free with a slightly prettier presentation. DEFINITELY not worth $20! I went back and reread the glowing over the top reviews. They read like absurd marketing language. I am amused at the thought of the developers writing reviews to themselves and then answering them. This is not my beef. I tried to find the toggle to stop auto renewal that they claim exists but doesn’t seem to. I tried to downgrade to the free version but the button on the website to do so is nonfunctional both on my phone and desktop. I have emailed the company with no response..Angry weather enthusiastVersion: 1.7.6

✓ Lacks support for Canadian resortsCool app, well designed with a nice concept but as someone North of the border it’s pretty useless to me as nothing nearby shows up.ConcernedCrustaceanVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Lacks functionality-Can’t look at the precipitation or wind forecast at various altitudes. Where is the forecast for? Just the summit? -Once you have a mountain in your “base camp” you can’t toggle to the satellite map or look at its location -There’s no topo -Can’t choose metric units if desired There’s better functionality in other weather apps; based on this I won’t be upgrading..AlpinestartVersion: 1.4.5

✓ Price increase not worth itLove Open Snow so the $20/year was tolerable but now that they increased it, it’s just too expensive for $30/year for only wanting to use the one app. I get the added value of having both apps but Open Summit doesn’t do it for me and I’m not going to pay the higher price even if they try and justify it with the added app. Let me pay $15/year for Open Snow and it’ll be all good. Otherwise it’s back to printing out the reports from NOAA for free..CardgeniusVersion: 1.8.5

✓ Useless without any overlay itemsWow, first and worst app I have ever come across that doesn’t allow any overlays to the base map. Seriously! I got Apple Maps if I needed a map without overlays. If you are intending to download to evaluate your needs for this app, save your time as you are forced to setup an account that asks for your full name and email address and you get nothing in return. The data this app if available in high resolution FOR FREE on the NOAA websites. Just creat short cuts to your Home Screen and save your yearly fee for something better than nothing that you get for “free here”..Allen LiebermanVersion: 1.8.0

✓ Basically useless in CanadaNice UI. Other than that it’s not particularly useful here in the Great White North. But…it’s a US based app. So, that’s great and as it should be, if you’re in the US..KanukleheadVersion: 2.0.9

✓ No Support for Canadian ResortsAs said in title.DaFlyingDuckVersion: 1.8.4
