Accurate Altimeter
Free AppAbout Accurate Altimeter
The most downloaded Altimeter on the Play Store is now updated with a new interface and new features!
- Altitude estimation with three different methods to be always sure to get a reliable measure, even without internet connection.
- Historical charts to see your excursions elevation gain.
- Map with your elevation and contour lines.
- Pictures with impressed place name and altitude.
Altitude can be estimated:
- With satellites triangulation. Slow and less accurate but it works even with no internet connection.
- Taking the ground elevation at your current position from an internet web service.
- Using the pressure sensor of your device (if available). It calibrates itself on pressure from the nearest weather station to improve accuracy.
As additional PRO features you can also:
- compensate systematic error of pressure sensor
- record altitude without opening the App
- remove advertising

You want to tell us why this app can't get the METAR pressure from the airport correct? PHNL is currently 30.06 and you display 30.03

I t works great. I would like to have a little more explanation as to what the different readings are all about. Air Pressure. GPS. And ?

It has a simple job to do and does it OK. But the app has gone overboard with ads. Too many full screen. And while banner ads are acceptable in a free app, animated banner ads are never acceptable. Yuk.

Great LoFi app that gives you (in metric or imperial) details of the height YOU are at & then the nearest commercial airport. It also gives the Baromiter reading at the same airport. You dont need to read long instructions to figure this out. Best though if gps and other free options ticked so you get a stable known base reading. App then works at optimum.

Love this app when recreating in the Mountains. Am able to determine my GPS location as well as altitude...Which could both be lifesavers if ever lost! Could Text a screen shot to get help seek help to guide you out!

Accurate within about 5 feet as compared to the mean elevation of my independent altimeter, my Magellan GPS's altimeter, and the altimeter of my Ford flex. It is sensitive enough to change its displayed altitude if the phone is set down, held at eye level, or above ur head.

I am occasionally curious about my altitude and it seems to do a fine job for that. Not intended for navigation or engineering. One has to understand the limitations of cellphone hardware. If your need is "I wonder how high this is" then I highly recommend this app.

Barometric altitude based on weather station, which is higher than my location 4 miles away. Pretty useless...

Very nice! Even tho it averages 100' higher than actual, in the free version, it is consistent and shows the change accurately when moving to different locations

Hi..i love to this app..just some small upgrade needed.. 1. The contur line disappear when u magnifies the map 2. Labels of heights in the map also almost too small to see and disappear when u magnifies the map Please2 upgrade this feature..really love using your app
