Hi Guys

This app was iPhone only last season (I was a little bit jealous) but it looks like Perisher have caught up with the times and released the “Perisher” app for android.

You can grab it from the play store here:

Have you tried sideloading the apk file? It’s working well on my GS2, You could extract the apk pretty easily off Jess’s phone.

Edit:
I’m feeling helpful so just extracted the apk from my phone and uploaded it here if you want to give it a go
