What reviewers actually said

Built only from these 120 real reviews (foreign ones translated). Superscripts jump to the quote here. Apple has no per-review links, so [ref] opens that app's reviews on the App Store.

  1. [R4] My Epic 1/5 · US Shameful that this app is so bad: Vail resorts has had plenty of time to improve this app yet from the beginning to the current version it continues to be the worst app of any major entertainment out outdoor activity skiing biking app
  2. [R7] My Epic 1/5 · US Poor functionality: Add a mileage tracker and a GPS speedometer, add a stay logged in option, I’m sick of having to log back in constantly. Make the facial recognition option actually work. This app is useless. I use a separate ski app because this one is no good.
  3. [R10] My Epic 1/5 · US App: Terrible interface. Password doesn’t hold and then takes for forever to verify.
  4. [R21] My Epic 3/5 · US Works but annoying: Does the app developer or Vail marketing even know what skiing is?? Why does the app wipe out my login credentials every two weeks or so?? This is so asinine, my banks don’t even do this. This app is horrible with fingerprint login. And if you can’t remember your password, the app locks you out after a few tries. When the app works it’s fun. When it doesn’t, I want to throw m
  5. [R9] My Epic 3/5 · US GPS Tracking: The app is easy to use. The GPS tracking is limited. It does not report your max or average speed. The distance appears to include the lift ride. It also doesn’t track the total time on the hills.
  6. [R18] My Epic 3/5 · US Okay for nav, not great at tracking: Always had high hopes for this app to be better than Ikon but no such luck. Oh well - something to work on. Tracking not so good; often times doesn’t log my distance or location.
  7. [R24] My Epic 3/5 · US Awesome sometimes: The layout is fine the options are fine but only works sometimes. The find my friends had to delete and reconnect 6+ times over 3 days, recorded elevation but not miles. Would be 5 stars if it worked.
  8. [R6] My Epic 3/5 · US UI confusion: At the prompt: “Let’s unlock the stoke for your season”, it was not obvious to me that you needed to slide the lock. I thought I needed to type something in the field. I reinstalled the app to try to fix it! Suggestion: remove the useless lock-slide screen; I already logged in to get to it!
  9. [R13] My Epic 2/5 · US Annoying to buy an epic pass: When trying to buy the epic pass, it doesn't work in the website or app, and you have to call in to purchase it.
  10. [R27] My Epic 3/5 · US Ok: Interface a bit clunky and trail maps really struggle to load.
  11. [R1] My Epic 1/5 · US Pay me if you want me to do your marketing research for you: It’s so lame that you force paying customers to do your market research Pay me or stop asking me to do your job
  12. [R19] My Epic 1/5 · US Ignores Settings to Send Ads: Even after disabling marketing motivations, this app continues to send advertisements as banner notifications. Had to completely disable notifications from iPhone Settings to get rid of near daily ads.
  13. [R12] My Epic 3/5 · US Could use some work (Heavenly): Wait times are incorrect on the app especially for the horrible Gondola line at Heavenly Village. Over an hour and half wait. To make matters worse the ingress and egress to the mountain on the shuttle and in an uber is horrible as well.
  14. [R15] My Epic 3/5 · US Awkwardly incomplete: The Find My friend option is great. What blows my mind as I can’t get a weather report/forecast. I can get a description of how the conditions were in the past but nothing about the future. That’s even remotely accurate. It would be awesome to be able to look at all the epic mountains and know which one had the best snow for the next couple days. For some reason that’s not o
  15. [R33] My Epic 3/5 · GB Useful but better if it were up to date: Good ideas but some of the data is for last season. For example Cloud Dine restaurant is described as open - but the kitchen has been closed all season (21 - 22) due to lack of staff. Not helpful…
  16. [R52] Slopes 5/5 · US Good app: For anyone who lives for the winter, the Slopes app isn’t just a piece of tech on your phone; it is the ultimate catalyst that completely alters how you experience the mountains. Before downloading it, a day of riding was just a blur of cold air and adrenaline, but the moment you start tracking, your entire relationship with the sport undergoes a massive shift. It injects a sense of purp
  17. [R55] Slopes 5/5 · US Very good, easy to use: Slopes is very good at doing what it’s made to do which is tracking runs speed and vertical. Its support is very good and responded to my email in 15 minutes.
  18. [R57] Slopes 5/5 · US Such a good app with so much potential: So I’m a ski racer, and I have used this app this year after some recommendations from friends, and wow! It has everything I need, like speed, and I can see where my friends are on the hill. Some things that could be added to help make it a better experience, would be to add photos for when your on a trip, so that everybody can share photos, make it so there
  19. [R58] Slopes 2/5 · US Flawed calorie counting: I found the calorie calculations to be too low by an order of magnitude. A whole day of skiing was giving me a calorie count of 15 calories. Ridiculous!
  20. [R65] OnTheSnow Ski & Snow Report 1/5 · US Wildly innacurate: Will say 11+ inches when the resort itself is predicting 3 inches. ?? Unreliable, better off with other sources
  21. [R66] OnTheSnow Ski & Snow Report 4/5 · US Love the app!: Love the app use it religiously in the winter season! Easy to use. The only reason I’m giving 4/5 stars is because frequently I wake up at 4am to go ski and the report for the day is sometimes updated for the day and sometimes not. For example this morning 1/6/26 at 4:15am I checked to see if my favorite Colorado resorts got any snow. Nothing. Then rechecked the app after seeing a F
  22. [R68] OnTheSnow Ski & Snow Report 1/5 · US Very unstable and buggy app.: Pages appear blank or freeze randomly.
  23. [R69] OnTheSnow Ski & Snow Report 4/5 · US Maps and stuff: I enjoy using the app but a lot of features seems to be limited to the website. I feel it would be super useful to have an interactive map that you can click on to find resorts by state/region/country. For me, if I want to plan a trip and find the best option for either a solo or family trip I still have to visit the website. To me this seems like an easy fix.
  24. [R79] Grand Mountain Adventure 1/5 · US Worst game ever: I hate this game it’s the worst game I have ever downloaded in my entire life and I don’t know how people even like this game and it’s just the worst game and I would not recommend this game at all
  25. [R80] Grand Mountain Adventure 5/5 · US Best game ever: I love this game soooooo much and I’m obsessed with it! I really love all the skins and maps (except Greenland it’s boring) 😐! I really love Norway right now and I want you to make a map of 🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴! Just consider it. Write me back if you think it’s a good idea!!!!! Please write back… please 🥺. I’m sorry I didn’t mean that about. Takk
  26. [R81] Grand Mountain Adventure 3/5 · US Ok: I was having so much fun with the first map so I wanted to buy the full version but when I did it didn’t analyze and I never got the full version. Made me mad to the point where I haven’t played this game in a while.
  27. [R82] Grand Mountain Adventure 1/5 · US Another one of “those”: Another stupidly deceiving game thats free to download, but to actually play anything past the tutorial you need to pay. An incredibly dishonest and manipulative practice
  28. [R93] Ski Girl Superstar 1/5 · US I HATE IT!: When I swipe left it never works which makes me lose the game and when I make an outfit for her it starts glitching sending me out the game I know you’re probably busy but please make time to fix this
  29. [R94] Ski Girl Superstar 5/5 · US Love it just one question: I’ve had ski girl super star since I was three it was one of the first games I got I only looked at the age rating recently I was wondering why it was twelve plus the only thing I can see bad is the cover picture
  30. [R96] Ski Girl Superstar 1/5 · US First time in ski girl but: They not help you 😡😡😡 first first time in ski girl but they is not fun
  31. [R97] Ski Girl Superstar 5/5 · US Really cool! A few things though…: Ok this game is super fun and addictive. I love that you can use the spa because in other coco games, the spa is always locked. So that’s really cool. I also like the fact that you can change your skis, and get cool helmets. However, there is a lot of stuff that’s locked. I think it would be cool if There was an update where the gems you collect when you race cou
  32. [R107] Snowboard Party 1/5 · US Gold diggers!: Used to play this when I was younger and everything was free and now I have to pay 25 dollars!!! I hate company’s who try to juice its players for money
  33. [R108] Snowboard Party 5/5 · US Pls: Pls make the freestyla freeeeeeeee
  34. [R109] Snowboard Party 3/5 · US A 3 star again: I made my account and it said sorry you could not play snowboard again like the other one
  35. [R110] Snowboard Party 1/5 · US Bad: I played one level and I cant do anymore without paying. Instant delete
  36. [R46] My Epic 2/5 · US Very disappointed with your app: The Epic app is extremely disappointing. It doesn’t even consistently track my snowboarding stats. Usually, it doesn’t chart my distance on the slopes at all, which would greatly enhance my experience. I don’t understand why your app is so subpar. The technology’s available. You are a billion or multi-million dollar corporation. We live in a digital world. And your
  37. [R25] My Epic 2/5 · US Kicked out: If I don't use the app for a week or more it makes you sign back in--- this is an annoying problem with an app that shouldn't be that hard to navigate.
  38. [R2] My Epic 5/5 · US Helpful: This app shows me the best time for when I should go to the mountain. By saying the snow fall and what’s open. 🥹
  39. [R5] My Epic 5/5 · US Epic has been one of the only joys to my life: Epic makes my life so easier to go skiing and that’s my favorite thing. The app helps me know what trails to go on before I go on the mountains and shows me cool ideas to go for ski checks.
  40. [R14] My Epic 5/5 · US Love this!: So convenient to check out what runs are open in my favorite resorts.
  41. [R61] Slopes 4/5 · US A great app it tracks your speed: I use this to track my speed going down the mountain to see how much I improve my ski skills
  42. [R62] Slopes 5/5 · US This app is so tuff: I love how it keeps track of everything. It leaves an archive on where you have been. At the end of the season you get a custom slideshow of your achievements. Very tuff.
