Apps for Your Trip — Set Up Bonvo and Download Offline Maps Before You Fly
The last item on your pre-trip checklist takes five minutes and saves you stress on the mountain: getting your apps ready, especially downloading your resort for offline use. Patchy mountain signal is the rule, not the exception, so prep your phone before you leave home.
Set Up Bonvo at Home
- Download the free app and open it while you still have fast, reliable wifi.
- Search for your resort and load it on the 3D map.
- Explore the beginner zones. Find the nursery slopes and gentle runs you plan to ride.
- Get familiar with the layout so the controls feel natural before you arrive.
Download Offline Maps
This is the single most important step. With offline maps, your resort works fully even with no signal and no data roaming.
- Find the offline download option for your selected resort.
- Download over wifi at home or the hotel, not on patchy mountain data.
- Confirm it is saved so the 3D map, slopes, and lifts are available offline.
- Save your battery too. Offline use draws less power than constant searching for signal.
Why Offline Matters on the Mountain
High in the Alps, signal drops in and out constantly. An offline map means you can always check where you are, find the nearest beginner run, and locate the right lift home, even in a dead zone. For a first-timer, that reliability is genuinely reassuring.
Your Whole Trip in Your Pocket
With Bonvo set up and your resort downloaded offline, your destination travels with you no matter the signal. It is the perfect final tick on the checklist before you fly. Download Bonvo Ski, save your maps, and arrive ready to ride.
