Snocru released an upgraded version of its free mobile app, which allows skiers, snowboarders, cyclists, bikers, runners, hikers and other outdoor enthusiasts to see and connect with each other in real time via Facebook.


Now Snocru users can login with Facebook, invite their friends to participate and share Snocru photos and adventures.  The update also significantly reduces battery drain on your mobile device while the app is running. The company plans to eventually sell ads on the free version of the app to outdoor retailers and release and ad-free version of the app for sale.


“We launched Snocru to enhance the experience for any active person.  Whether that’s in the winter skiing or snowboarding, or in the summer hiking or mountain biking, Snocru works great!” States, Ed Lewis, Snocru’s founder.  “As our user base grows, we’re excited to see the many different ways that Snocru is being utilized.”


Using a GPS enabled tracking system, Snocru keeps track of distance covered, average speed, vertical gained, slope angle. Uniquely, the app also allows users to see and connect with other ‘CRU’ members while out on the trails or the slopes, even when cellular service is unavailable.


The app is available for both iPhone and Android phones. Snocru LLC is a digital app development company based in Sundance, Utah.
