Ski the day. Keep every run.

SkiMap automatically records ski runs and lifts with GPS after you start a recording. It tracks speed, distance and vertical and saves the session in your activity history. Allow background location access to keep recording with your screen locked.

Distance tells you how far you travelled. Vertical measures elevation change. Looking at both helps distinguish a long day of cruising from repeated laps with a lot of descent.

Set up SkiMap before heading out and allow the location access needed for recording. These are the main steps; control labels can vary by version.

1. Open the recorder and tap Start Recording.
2. Check that the session is running, then put your phone away and enjoy your skiing. For recording with the screen locked, allow background location access.
3. When you finish, stop recording and save your session.
4. Open your activity history to revisit the route and statistics.

Set up location permissions before your first run so you can spend the day skiing instead of tending to your phone. A short test recording with the screen locked is a useful first-time check.

Start with a charged phone, download your maps over Wi-Fi and keep the screen locked between map checks. If your phone uses a battery-saving mode, check that it allows SkiMap to keep recording in the background.

Tracking tells the story of where you have been. A ski map helps you get your bearings for what comes next. SkiMap brings both into the same app, so your ski day is more than a running total.

Save your resort map before leaving your connection, then start your recording when you are ready to ski.
