We have just been informed that the App doesn't seem to be available just yet on all App Stores around the world - available on some and not others. If you can't find it right now please do try a bit later as it should be popping up everywhere during today.

Thanks.

It's fab.


If you don't have an Ipad, it's now time to get one.

An updated version of the iPhone/iPod touch app is available now - or should be worldwide by the end of today.

New iPad version hopefully available very soon.

A new updated version of our iPad App is now available on the App Store (or should be within today in all regions).

Hopefully this new version eliminates some stability issues in the original, though we are continuing to make some changes and hope to have a further update available in the next few weeks.

If you do have comments about the App, please let us know at app@snowjapan.com.

Thanks.

We'll re-arrange and add a few to the dropdowns in the near future to give it a bit of a refresh.

In the meantime, the last of our new 6 main site designs has just gone up.

From now on, we will start rotating them (in no particular order and very probably about once a week and/or when we remember!)

Hi Guys!

The iPhone app is a great idea!

I don't know whether someone suggested this before, but an option for saving favourite resorts would be amazing.

This way I could keep an eye real quick on the resorts near home.

Thanks anyway for you hard work guys!
Cheers

Thanks Mohican

Appreciate the feedback and comments.

We have had a number of feature ideas and suggestions sent in and we are keeping notes.

Right now, we are concentrating on our resort database and some other areas of the site that need updating, so while we will come back to the Apps it will be a while before we can really start plans to develop them further. Realistically, I doubt that we will see further major updates - other than small adjustments where necessary - for at least a few months.

I still can't actually believe that we got those three done (iphone, ipad, android), considering the volume of all of the other things that have been going on.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy it and to everyone else as well... further comments are always welcome.

Thanks
