Comments on Altimeter for Android

★★★★★ This is an amazing app - plain basic altimeter, it can use the pressure sensor in your phone or the GPS. I use it with the pressure sensor, and it is extremely accurate - matches a real altimeter placed next to it. Allows the use of metric or US units for both pressure and altitude. No other useless fluff. Somebody was complaining that it wasn't accurate - either the sensor wasn't good, or the altimeter calibration setting hadn't been entered, which is key to proper operation. If you don't know where to get the current altimeter setting, search for "(insert nearby airport name here) altimeter setting" - this should take you to a page where you'll see an entry marked QNH, ALT or similar, measured in either HPa or in. Hg. Plug that value in, and you'll get accurate altitude - and keep in mind that the value can change hourly. As a side note, it would be nice if the calibration could be done quickly from the main page - but that's a minor thing.

★★★★★ Works great. If you want altitude in feet just go to settings.

★★☆☆☆ It is not accurate. I had a similar app on my S7 which was precise to a calibrated manometer with 0.05% reading accuracy.

★★☆☆☆ Nice concept, clear layout. Unfortunately the reading is never correct - standing at sea level every day, it shows negative values, even after calibrating. And it does not allow re-calibration. Had to uninstall.

★★☆☆☆ "Sensor is set to automatic" Not at all. I have to turn it on every time I open up the app. Will not connect to the GPS.

★★☆☆☆ I don't even HAVE this app - not sure it would even work on this phone. Why am I supposed to review it?
