About
Ski Mountain Tracker by ExaMobile S.A. is a dedicated GPS recorder built for winter sports enthusiasts including skiers, snowboarders, alpine skiers, and cross-country skiers. The app accurately measures and records a wide range of session data — from maximum skiing speed and total distance to time spent on slopes versus lifts versus rest periods. Users can visualize their runs on an interactive map, monitor altitude changes with minimum and maximum elevation values, and capture photos overlaid with live stats to share with friends. A standout 'Fast Ride' mode allows isolated measurement of speed, time, and distance for any individual section of a run. All historical session data is stored and accessible for review, enabling athletes to track progress over time. The app also supports altitude and speed charts per session, vertical distance tracking, slope percentage display, and customizable color themes including a Black AMOLED/OLED option for battery efficiency on compatible devices. With over 30 million installs globally and support for 16+ languages including Spanish, Czech, Swedish, Turkish, and Portuguese, Ski Mountain Tracker caters to both seasoned professionals and casual beginners. It can be used for competitive tracking, navigating ski resorts, or simply making a day on the slopes more fun and data-rich. A premium in-app upgrade unlocks additional advanced features and analytics.
