Description by PVDApps(from Google Play)
Barometer Plus app measures air pressure and altitude using your device's built-in barometric pressure sensor. Because air pressure changes usually indicate a weather change, you can use this app to monitor and predict short-term weather variations. People suffering from migraine, headaches, or joint pain can monitor how barometric pressure impacts their mood. Fishermen can monitor the atmospheric pressure for right-time fishing. You can use the app for virtually all outdoor and indoor activities, such as climbing, trekking, hiking, and even stair climbing.
FEATURES: • The app contains a barometer and altimeter with a personalization graphic in classic analog style. It also displays the current temperature and humidity. • Display barometric pressure (sensor value) or mean sea level pressure (MSLP - value used in weather forecast services or stations). • Units support for pressure: mb, inHg, kPa, atm, Torr, psi, hPa, mmHg. Units for altitude: meter, feet. • Calibrate the barometer using altitude/location from the GPS. Calibrate the altimeter using the nearest airport information/METAR, or manually enter the QNH of the nearest airport. Offset sensor output value. • Measure the height (building/mountain/hiked/climbed) using the "Relative Altitude" feature (can be enabled in the app's Settings). • Notification about pressure change. "Notification custom rule" for you to define how and when the app sends notifications. Notify when air pressure changes indicate that extreme or worse weather may occur. • "Pressure Tracking" and "History Graph" for atmospheric barometer monitor. • "My Area" allows you to define your frequent stay places, and the app tracks air pressure with location data. • Export history to CSV format. • This app is the digital version compared with an aneroid or mercury barometer and can be adjusted to MSLP with additional features.
CUSTOMIZABLE: You can change your barometer/altimeter appearance with: • Seven different housing colors. • Black, white or blue disk background. • Four different app backgrounds. • Three different types of needles. • Marker needle for easily monitor. • Dark or light widgets theme.
NOTES: • App only works on devices with a barometer sensor. • Short-term weather forecast (12-24 hours) with icon on the disk was based on local pressure sensor data, which may not be 100% accurate. • Each time your device reboots, open the app for tracking with the "Exact update interval" feature work. • You may take the phone/tablet far away from computers, cables, and other magnetic sources to get accurate results.

Comments on Barometer Plus - Altimeter for Android
★★★★☆Tony Craven· Aug 26, 2025
I use the app to track air pressure for fishing and hunting, I love the historical graph.
★★★★☆Lisa G· Jan 13, 2025
I check the barometric pressure against my weather app. It seems to be accurate. I'm trying to compare it to a record of my Arthritis Pain. I'm just starting, so no conclusions yet. I'm willing to bet there's a market for an app that automatically charts some combination of 1-10 Pain scale, humidity, temperature... things that affect Arthritis Pain. If you live long enough, you'll get osteoarthritis.
★★★★★Bea Anderson· Jan 8, 2026
I was using another app, but it was not giving correct readings this app is working correctly
★★★★★Victor Foster· Dec 5, 2025
I have CRPS. I can feel the barometric pressure changes. The barometer confirms why I'm hurting. Thank you
★★☆☆☆Aerulight· Jul 1, 2026
Lovely idea but the widget and notification banner refuse to update regardless of how permissive any of the app and phone settings may be, showing only a random static number. To see the real pressure readings one has to open the app manually and leave it open full screen. This defeats the purpose that its settings sounded capable of serving: automated background notices of rapid changes in barometric pressure to better manage medical needs sensitive to such changes.
★☆☆☆☆Dick Wagenknecht· Aug 14, 2025
This was my app of choice. NO LONGER. The ads have become so intrusive, the app is no longer useful. Also, the graph no longer works.
★☆☆☆☆Ed Wildsau· Jul 22, 2025
Another Barometer app that just uses internet data for your location for the "reading". Cut it off the net, and it shows always the same standard pressure.
