Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

I use this every year without much bugs or complaints. I updated this week and it doesn’t record the runs well. I use it at the same time with my husband and it records some runs for me (about half) and some others for my husband. When I notice it’s not recording I pause and restart, or close the app but still it’s totally unreliable.

This app is definitely far inferior to the free android Maprika app from more than a decade ago and it isn’t even free. I paid for a year premium subscription and it continues to not record several runs throughout the day, it doesn’t share location in real time or even close to real time with friends and it doesn’t work well in the backcountry or record uphill skinning.

I love recording my trips with Slopes! It tracks stats I never knew to look at and it encourages me to try new runs and try new things.
