Pros and cons of Snow-Forecast.com app for iPhone and iPad

Snow-Forecast.com app good for

please add a connection to the navigon app in addition to the maps-link and its perfect!!! ;-)
Very good for the first run. Has most of the info the website has, in an easier way to navigate your favorite areas. There is bug in the weather maps that does not give you the crosshairs, or any symbol, for your chosen resort, as well as the maps are slightly "off" of the location. Minor bug I hope they fix asap. I think I will use this a lot!
Overall, what this does is great and very useful and worth a dollar. I particularly like that you can list favourites and all the detailed weather maps. A few issues: had trouble switching into metric, very slow, and the distances inaccurate. I also like the feature to find nearest resort with pow, etc, but would be cool to be able to customize thresholds. Say, find resort with >15cm & <-5C.
Easy to navigate through. Very detailed information and user friendly.

Some bad moments

Wow, its my first day with this app and so far the ski resorts nearby all have 2-3 day old snow reports. I expected better as their website is great.
I like temperature in Celsius and snow precipitation in inches. Im not down with a imperial or metric setting. I like both. Also, when viewing conditions for next few days I dont need to see need to see noon and pm. Id like option to choose between the 2
One of my local mountains is on their web page but not on the app. Some resorts have not been updated in a month. Does not seem to give any accumulated snow for the last couple days,just what is coming in the next 6. Could be a lot better. Ill probably delete before end of season.
Reports are nearly 2 months old for the resorts I looked up whereas they are up to date on the website. I wish I could get my .99 back
This app is a waste of money. It doesnt come close to the quality you should expect for even a free iPhone app. This is likely the worst app I have installed on my phone.
Worst app ever...wish I could get my money back. The temperatures are so far from accurate it is a joke. My local mountain, which is also the biggest in North America so you would think it would be accurate, has been inverted for a week...this app has said consistently that it is going to be -29 up too when in reality it has been +3. Big difference
