A pool cover has little to do with the formation of ice. It is for keeping the debris out of the pool.
If you are in an area where ice may form on your pool it is suggested that you use an ice equalizer pillow under the cover. Those pillows are for keeping a hole in the middle of the ice, and not so much for holding up the cover as is a common misconception. The use of an ice equalizer pillow may can help reduce the chances of ice damage if your area is prone to freezing.

How do you care for a vinyl pool if you want to leave it uncovered during the winter months?
There is no difference, covered or uncovered, a covered pool is only going to keep the debri out or on top of the cover, where an uncovered pool is going to collect all the debri on the bottom of the pool its sometimes more work depending on where the pool is located, you may or may not have to scrub the walls and floor, The only problem I know of would be when the short burst or warm weather comes your water will turn green a lot faster without a cover, There is no difference, covered or uncovered, a covered pool is only going to keep the debri out or on top of the cover, where an uncovered pool is going to collect all the debri on the bottom of the pool its sometimes more work depending on where the pool is located, you may or may not have to scrub the walls and floor, The only problem I know of would be when the short burst or warm weather comes your water will turn green a lot faster without a cover,

What damage can a hard freeze do to an inground pool?
It can crack the pool and any pipes that has water in them that freeze. a way of protecting the pool is to float drums in a line along the middle of the pool there by leaving an unfrozen track along the middle into which the ice can expand. You should definitely empty the filter and exposed water pipes.
