About Barometer HD

- Please consider emailing us with problems, rather than posting them in reviews, we'll be able to fix them more quickly with direct feedback.

Barometer HD shows you the current barometric pressure in different units, including inHg, mmHg, hPa, atm, millibars. It also shows your altitude at STP.

This app only runs on devices with the barometric sensor, such as the Motorola Xoom and Galaxy Nexus.

Planned upcoming features include:

- Barometer Widget for the Android Desktop.
- More calibration options.
- Triggerable sound effects on major pressure changes (storm warning mode).
..and more!

There are currently some issues with phone-sized screens being too small to read all of the pressure values.

Works fine : I compared the results with my house barometer and they are identical ! Would be nice though if colors could be chosen and also if there was a small widget. But I tried many other barometer apps and they are too complicated or else function badly. This is the best for me !

Very accurate and easy to use! Its dummy proof lol. It works GRRREAT on my Galaxy Nexus! Anyone nay-saying this app is daft....this app is easy to use and is spot on accurate too! Awesome job guys!!!

My Galaxy Note is reading 965mb. That pressure is equivalent to a Category 2 hurricane! Guess Samsung didn't calibrate my unit. Cant find info on how to do it myself.

Can you create a widget that displays pressure in inHg? And has an option for update frequency?

Works well with Galaxy Note. Set +/- compensation to calibrate and run. A++

But it really needs a widget to complete it

Seems to work well, just installed and going to watch it. Galaxy NEXUS

Accurate, bug free, ad free, no funky permissions. It just plain works - what more could ya ask for?

E70%
by E####:

I would say this is one of the best apps, if not thee best app for reading Barometric Pressure. One great feature is that you can calibrate it if you're phone is not calibrated.

Works like a charm.

I have spent a couple of years of my life leading walking and skiing holidays.My comments are related to how I use a real barometer/altimeter Weather - in the absence of a forecast, changes in atmospheric pressure, tracked every hour or two over a day or so, give some useful idea of likely weather changes. In particular, steep drops in pressure over several hours give indicate a very high probability of much worse weather arriving. this app fails tog ive any meanigful record of changes over any useful period; it does not allow for hourly recordings of pressure over a period of (say) 24 or 48 hours (which would be extremely useful).

Ok so what's the point of having such an eye catching graphic of a barometer in your description and then your app shows nothing but a linear drawing of a barometer that looks like it's from the 70s? I mean really...did you think we're blind or that we wouldn't expect the graphics in your app to match the graphic in your app description??!!

R70%
by R####:

Exactly the right amount of information. Especially like being able to set an offset value.

V70%

People who give bad review should get a life and read what it says works perfectly for me

K70%
by K####:

I was surprised my phone had a pressure sensor. This is a great and simple app

T70%
by T####:

It's ok, just missing now the possibility to set a wider scale for instance from 800 to 1100hpa so we can visualize in the graph the variations in a plane flight trip. It would be nice to export data from last 24 hours or so (in CSV format) to use it later on a computer.

C70%
by C####:

The one reason that this app stands out against the other apps is this one actually allows you to put in a compensation value to calibrate your sensor! Great job!

i can't wait until someone asks if anyone knows the barometric pressure--I do!

R70%

The app always shows the same. useless.

Inaccurate below sea level. For example Netherlands.

I don't know use the barograph

R70%

Seems accuarate, pls add a widget

Z70%

Would be better if it could be started at system start

D70%

Shows pressure at about 850, which is correct for my altitude.

Great app, what else can be said

Does exactly what it says on the tin!
