Slopes: Ski & Snowboard for Negative User Reviews
✓ Too easy to lose a day’s dataThis app drains an Apple Watch in six hours. My Apple Watch battery died and I found there was no way to pause and save the day’s data. Thinking that I must have started the day without a full watch charge, the next day I ensured the watch was fully charged and at 3:00 my watch died. I left the app running on my phone until I could charge the watch and was able to save the day in the phone but discovered that the app stopped recording my runs when the watch went into low power mode..Version: 2024.1
✓ Do betterThis app has many great features that are convenient and help you improve. It also helped me quickly find skip patrol for a friend who was injured. However, as someone who is tracking their entire day in the app to monitor speed, mileage, and other stats, the app has a lot of ways to go. There have been multiple times where I go to end my day skiing and the app crashes and then deleted the entire days worth of recording. There is no good explanation for the fact that I can one second see that I skied 17 miles and 16,000ft of vertical drop and then the next second it’s just all completely gone. Where is this data stores throughout the time it’s recording? 8 hours of valuable data shouldn’t just disappear into thin air because the app closes. It needs to be stored locally or in the cloud and save throughout the day. Complete embarrassment of an app that requires an expensive subscription. I’m disappointed and won’t be renewing that’s for sure!.Version: 2024.4
✓ Data DisappearedI recorded a whole day of snowboarding at Blue Mountain yesterday and it disappeared from the app..Version: 2024.4
✓ Subscribes earlyYou do not get three days - my advice is cancel it as soon as you subscribe whether you like it or not, otherwise they charge you immediately as they remind you it will charge. Disingenuous to say the least App is good however hence the 2 stars Update: Response from developer confirms exactly what I said - you get 24 hours to cancel or you are charged, makes the three day free trial totally disingenuous. “ There is a 3 day trial, but if you don't cancel it within 24 hours before the trial ends then it converts into a paid subscription”.Version: 2023.1
✓ Could be BetterI love the app! It’s good, but there is a lot that can be improved. I would rate it more positively if there were reviews for every run. Let’s say, the top speed, distance, average speed, and time for every trail you ski or ride. Also, the time on the chairlift and lift line time (as well as other breaks) are added into your average speed. This doesn’t bother me much, but when comparing with friends who use other apps, I always have a speed of around 3 mph when they have averages of 24 mph. Some apps I’ve used (which have [sadly] been taken out of the App Store) recorded numbers of jumps and names of trails. When talking with friends today on the lifts, we decided that the app should totally show the names of the trails you skied and have trail maps readily available. Along with the maps, I always wished the app would show which trails were closed, and which chairlifts were running. Other than these suggestions, the app is great!! Though I have had better apps, this one is definitely at the top. 👍.Version: 2020.21
✓ Did not save the dayWas snowboarding the whole day, set a new record, when entered the app to stop tracking and finish the ride, there were no pause/stop buttons or the bottom menu at all. Seemed like a glitch. Reloaded the app and instead of continuing from where I stopped it just discarded the data of the day altogether. This was my premium trial, cancelling it now and deleting the app. No way people pay for this..Version: 2024.4
✓ Integration and usabilityPositives: 1 easy to set and use 😊 2 integration with Strava and MyfitnessPal👍 3 even on iPhone screen eligible to read 4 really gives metrics based on ski time, chair T bar time, idle time 5 in run details you customise map and details to be sent via your message App👍 6 like max speed but it can become a fools game as in trying to go faster ⛷ Negatives 1 only one but it really drained the power on Apple Watch 5‼️ in the end I turn off blue tooth and ran the Slopes App on the IPhone only! I could see no difference and my Watch could easily track everything else without running out of power - see no point on the watch as using Bluetooth and GPS off the iPhone kills battery life on the watch🤔.Version: 2022.10
✓ Garmin Integration Doesn’t WorkI was recommended this app while away skiing and it seemed good, I downloaded and created an account, and thought I was all set. I had already completed some skiing and recorded this using my Garmin watch, and it was saved in Garmin Connect. I tried to upload my Garmin Connect data in the Slopes App, but it didn’t work, I followed all of the instructions in the app and connect the developers for support, even following multiple emails and disconnecting and reconnecting the app with Garmin connect, the data won’t transfer. If this is something you are looking to utilise, the app doesn’t work and it’s a waste off time setting it up..Version: 2023.6
✓ Inaccurate friends locationPersonally I had issues finding my friends on the map then when they did pop up they were miles away even tho we were stood next to me. Locating friends was the main reason we both wanted the app but if this part is in accurate then it’s a no from us. Shame because it was looking good. Would love to know if they get this sorted..Version: 2024.4
✓ Doesn’t work anymoreUsed to be awesome. Leave my phone in the truck and let my Apple Watch do all the work. I didn’t ski last season. This season I tried it twice with the phone in the truck and used the watch and it recorded nothing. Today I brought the phone in my pocket and the same deal, it didn’t record a thing. To bad. It used to be a really good app..Version: 2024.2
✓ Great app but paywall is steep!The app provides a great record and interesting insights. That being said the premium paywall is very steep! If I could earn access though social media shares that would be great and I’d promote the app but as it stands, I don’t see value in the premium pass. So I can only rate it based on the features available to non paying users..Version: 2019.3
✓ It isn’t working like it did last yearI don’t have any analytics at all this year with the updates. I loved the daily analytics I had in previous years. What am I paying for this year without these analytics.Version: 2024.3
✓ Apple Watch connectivity flakeySuffered from multiple lost runs/not recording when it looks like it is on the phone. Selection made on watch and just get spinning wheel then app crashes. 5 attempts it looks like it’s going but then randomly quits 3 runs later. Not reliable enough yet to pay for!.Version: 2024.4
✓ Decent but not greatRode morning and afternoon and recorded separately, gave me an option to “Merge” the two and it deleted the whole afternoon which was the whole day but 3 runs. Maybe I need to brush up on my understanding of the English language but when I see merge I think combine. What happened to me seems a lot more like replacing or overwriting, which is in no way what I wanted. Besides that it is pretty much what it says it is. The app for the watch is cool, seeing my speed every run is nice. Would be much better if it told you how long your last run was at least on the watch, like a summary of the last run of some sort. Didn’t really get to see the little map thing it generates of your runs since it deleted most of my day. Decent but really could use some improvement. “Merge “is NOT synonymous with “overwrite with”. Very irritating..Version: 2018.7
✓ Easy to use, but to see your runs on a map requires an expensive subscriptionNice looking app and easy to use. Apple Watch is enabled for accurate calories. Expensive premium subscription is required to see you run details on a map......shame..Version: 2019.3
✓ Stop removing functionalityYou can’t add runs manually any longer or edit your timeline… If you happen to forget to turn the app on one day your stats for the season are useless. Why remove basic functions you have had for so long?.Version: 2024.1
✓ BuggyMarketed as the best skiing app for integration with Strava. The others must be bad then. Lots of bugs, including the current one that won’t let me upload to Strava cos the Slopes file wasn’t created by Slopes 🤔. I can’t seem to overcome and have fed back to the developer. When it does upload the Strava, it is really just pulled across as a screenshot. No HR data appears on Strava. Have been feeding this back for 2.5 years. In the market for a new app. Gave two stars, cos as a stand-alone app is not bad. But really wanting the Strava record.Version: 2022.10
✓ Not only unreliable, but disappointingI was so excited to start using this app, but from day one have had problems. The primary issue is that you can get through an entire day of runs, hitting speeds you wanted recorded, making tracks you wanted to review, understanding the vertical feet that you dropped, etc. This app is not only unreliable, which unto itself you might simply say “oh well, not a great app“, but this app actually is disappointing because after an exciting day on the slopes you sit down, open your pocket, take out the app and take a look at it - and it simply says “no GPS data recorded”. After the first time this happened I read the troubleshooting guide and it said that you needed to make sure you had a reliable connection. Next time I confirmed that I did (my other apps all recorded). Next time GPS data didn’t record I was told it was likely do to keeping the app in an outside pocket where the phone got cold - keep it in an inside pocket to ensure warmth and then it will record your GPS location - so I did. It still did not work. Today I skied at Breck in 38° sunny weather and finished the day, looked at the device, and it said “no GPS data recorded“. I would be OK if an app simply didn’t work, but when you’re so excited to see how you ripped down the mountain side, and this app, let you down, makes you realize that you need to start looking for other apps. I would not waste my time with this app..Version: 2023.6
✓ Fair App - but I wish it could do much moreThe tracking and speed measuring is really cool. It's cool to see the graphs on the apple watch. It's a shame the graphs on the watch are not available on the app. It's also a shame the social media share ability. By this I mean the stats are at the bottom of a big white background. I would rather share a graph as displayed on the watch..Version: 1.5.1
