Screen shots ----Ski Tracks app

Sun, 10 Mar 2013 08:57:00 GMT

I've just came back from Sestriere in Italy .I tried a few different apps and by far the best was Ski Tracks...Iphone 69pence Android 79pence
I used a iphone but had Data roaming turned off so it plotted my route fine but the map was blank .When i got back home and turned everything back on it loaded the map .So if you have data roaming off it might be worth find a Wifi spot in resort so you can load the full map before you set off .
You can switch between Miles or Km at any time

Correct...Half down a small blue run ,knees bent head down or you had long walk to the cafe

The rest of the top speeds were on my back like a turtle

Impressive stuff, I've got ski tracks app but always forget to use it!

How did it drain your battery?

And am I right in saying it works on GPS and not 3G so doesn't cost to run?

I started the app then put the phone in standby/locked so didnt use much battery at all
I turned Data roaming off so it only worked on GPS ,so no cost...I also forgot to turn it on day 4 when we started thats why it shows less than the other days

That's a great app! Thank you for sharing, I might be finally convinced to get a new phone - just to see/compare a day's skiing. With Dolomiti Superski pass you can check what/where you've skied but this app is better - I like the speed option :)

Not at all. Total customisation and freedom on Android :)

Same thing. iPhone vs android. Mac vs pc.

I never used apple until a few years ago. I now wonder why I ever used anything but. No viruses, no waiting ages for the machine or software to load, no regular crashes, etc etc.

Anyway, I digress,

Looking forward to giving ski tracks a go next week.
