Description
This altimeter delivers the altitude of your current position either from the device (GPS) or from the ASTER digital elevation model (with a horizontal accuracy of 30m).
Depending on your current position and your device one of the two methods is more correct. Using GPS on the device is known for a large error in the altitude for difficult receiver conditions it's not available for network based positioning at all. Therefore this altimeter works on devices without a GPS sensor.
It's the perfect app for tracking your height on all outdoor activities e.g. hiking, biking or while in flight.
More features: - switch between metric and feet units - set an optional target altitude - switch between Device, ASTER and combined altitude
Ad supported freeware
Recent changes: - fixed missing ASTER data - loads faster - works offline

Great App! I checked accuracy. I compared the altitude readings to a friends Magellan GPS and it was almost identical. I am searching for a mountain cabin and altitude is critical.

The ui is pretty horrendous, however it does a pretty good job at getting altitude
★★★★★Kerby· Dec 31, 2011
Love it Works great on the DROID x. I love it. Very close to altitudes I know around my location.

GS2 Works well, even in the mountainous terrain of the Colorado Rockies.

Doesn't work at all on Droid X in Colorado Downloaded on Droid X in Colorado Springs, and it doesn't even launch. Waste of time. Why doesn't somebody at Android test this stuff to see if it even works?
★☆☆☆☆dusty· Sep 20, 2010
Rarely works ever. When actually working usually 2,000 feet off. Useless.

Can't work every time i on/off phone, my data is not the same??? Can't work at all.

Obtrusive ads are extremely obtrusive and doesn't seem to measure up to what I want. Then again, I think what I want is a proper altimeter. Low grade though for obtrusive ads
★☆☆☆☆Darin· Aug 28, 2011
Don't bother, ads, ads, ads, and more ads Don't bother, ads, ads, ads, and more ads, and it didn't even work to boot. I give it a single start because it will not let me give it nothing.
