Not everything needs to be a subscription. Planner app? Subscription. meal planning app? Subscription. Let's not pretend like this is the only way to monotize an app, app devs were not starving prior to this model taking over the world. Dev is against ads? Fine but let's not create a false binary there are -one time payments -month to month plans ( I only use this during ski season why do I HAVE to pay for a year?) -partner with ski resorts / mega passes Out of words but I could go on.

Provides the best weather and other related information like wind speed, cloud cover, etc. So helpful when planning all outdoor activities, not just skiing. Plus they are always adding new layers, like the recent fall colors. Their customer service is off the charts Awesome! Highly recommend this app!

I really like this app. I have used it in winter for skiing and in summer for hiking. It's as accurate as any. The user interface is straightforward and the ability to tailor the forecast to a specific location/mountain is a major plus. It's now my go to app for weather forecasts. Some people have complained about the price for "all access" but $30 a year seems a pittance for all the features offered (and the absence of ads).
