Weather for lift hours
Kaiserwetter Ski rates the weather during the resort's operating hours, or from 8:30 to 16:00 local time when none are published. You see how many hours are open and how many are sunny, not a daily average that includes the night.
Rating and Scout
The rating – Kaiserwetter, good, fair, poor – follows your profile: cruiser, powder, sporty, family or park, for skiing and snowboarding. It is rule-based and shows its reasons.
The Scout compares today, tomorrow or the weekend across all resorts, your favourites, by driving time or by radius. Closed resorts are never presented as a good ski day. You can also put two or three resorts side by side.
Season start
“Opening soon” lists the next published season start dates with a countdown, favourites first. If a resort has not published a date yet, the app says exactly that – it never invents one.
Once the season has started, a resort counts as open unless there is evidence otherwise. The source is always shown in small print.
Piste map
Every resort has an illustrated panoramic trail map built from open data, plus a valley view for each base area. “Where am I?” shows you as a dot on the plan. The plan and the map are free.
The Season Pass adds the interactive 3D view: tap a lift and the camera looks up the lift line. A compass turns the view. Your favourites' piste maps also work offline.
Maps never replace signs, closures or operator instructions on the mountain.
Avalanches and notifications
The avalanche danger level comes straight from the official avalanche warning services, with publisher, validity and a link to the full bulletin. Without a current bulletin the app shows no level.
Choose notifications for each favourite:
Everything is worked out on your iPhone, with quiet hours from 22:00 to 07:00.
