Description

iOS/GPS altitude
Altitude estimated by the device's location service. It works reasonably well in most situations but can't track small changes and can be unreliable indoor.

Barometric altitude (iPhone 6 minimum)
Altitude based on the device's barometer. This is how most hardware altimeters work. It can track very small relative variations but must be calibrated with weather data or GPS. Calibration with weather data grabs current sea-level pressure and temperature at your location from a nearby weather station. GPS calibration takes the current iOS/GPS altitude as a starting point then uses the barometer to track changes.

Elevation database
This method displays earth surface elevation at your location by polling an elevation database. It works even with very imprecise location data but requires network access. Surface elevation usually includes buildings and trees.

Where is the feet?

Biggles above on

Can we have the option of feet as well as metres please?

Doesn’t work

cjad100 on

Received one accurate signal. Then fails to work at all, simply showing previous location info. Tried everything. Wasted £1.

Neat and functional

mekachow on

Easy, seems accurate and at last I know how high the hill climb has taken me..! Recommended.

Great app

Eggmanuk on

Use this all the time. Very accurate and easy to use

Altimeter

JayJay07973 on

Nice and neat but accuracy only as good as the GPS on the phone, as you'd expect. Display is clear but I would like an option to display the digital readout as LARGE as possible for those posey photos on top of a mountain!

Does The Job...

The Russell on

This is a lovely, simple, clean & clear wee app... It seems to be reasonably accurate ( +/- ;o) and is easy to read in either metres or feet. Wouldn't actually want my life to depend on it (what kinda crazy situation would that be!) but it's just fine for driving, walking, hiking, skiing, snowboarding, etc.

Attractive & Functional

Digger Hole on

Good app. Syncs fine with an iPhone. Claims to be compatible with iPad Air but iTunes refuses to allow it to be synced to an iPad. Please try and fix this. Thank you.

Great Altimeter
