User Reviews for Travel Altimeter & Elevation

Barometer or gps elevation options are perfect

Sometimes after a pressurized flight my Apple Watch ultra get barometer elevation messed up. This app allows resenting the barometer. Otherwise I have to do my ultra in water to reset. I don’t use the compass much but the background picture is great. IPhone 6 or greater supports barometers.

Love this app.

I live half the year in Colorado and use the app as we travel to the mountains from the front range. Denver is the Mile Hi city as identified by this app. Also going to places such as Steamboat Springs or Pagosa Springs- we are crossing different passes and/ or the Continental Divide. Really fun to check the altitude along the way. We also spend time in FL and it’s neat to see the actual ‘altitude’ in spots away from the beach. Yes I recommend!

Nice, but lacks a key feature

I like how this works with one glaring exception. I wish I could lock the app so it wouldn’t timeout when I’m driving. I connect to CarPlay and like to see my elevation as I drive. Unfortunately the app times out and the screen goes blank. It would be a five star app if that didn’t happen. It has a nice easy interface to work with, clear information. Easy to add features and you can remove ads for cheap. Good app, just want it to continually display while driving.

ok...but could be better.....

When traveling for three months at a time in our motor home....having accurate reading of the altitude are critical for my wife’s heart condition. This is my favorite app for altitude. I gave it 3 stars because I’ve never founded the center screen compass seems not to have a function. It’s just there and a distraction while looking for the altitude reading while driving up steep inclines or narrow mountain roads. Perhaps I don’t understand it’s use but it’s distracting none the less.

Some minor issues but main stuff works well

I still see ads despite buying no ads option. I think it triggered when I pressed “more apps” button. Some things seem to work a little slow and wonky but to be fair, I am using an almost 5 year old device. Will update review as I see progress on the app. Keep up the effort. Please fix your app support store link, it goes to a 404.

Perfect!

Love the simple design and background pictures. No need to log in, just open the app and there is your altitude, latitude and longitude, and a compass. Large print and works even where cell service is limited, as long as a connection is established before service is lost. Ads are not disruptive to the experience. I’ve been using this app for years without issue and like it much more than the similar app my husband downloaded by mistake. He deleted it and installed this one.

Helpful and useful but not precise

Overall, this app was simple to install and does track your altitude when standing still, walking or driving. If the old saying “Close us close enough” works for you you’ll be quite pleased with it. The only down side is that I can be standing still in a location and the app keeps changing the altitude. It might count up ten or fifteen feet, start counting down from whatever altitude it stops at, then reverse and count up again. Just to make sure that I wasn’t somehow causing the fluctuations I set the phone on a flat surface, but the “indecision” by the app continued. So bottom line, if you’re just curious to see approximately what altitude you’re at (e.g. about 1500 feet above sea level) it’s perfect! But if you need more precise information you’ll need to opt for a more precise meter. But hey! It’s a free app. So for the average person who’s just wanting to know approximate altitude or whether a slight grade is going up or down, I’d highly recommend this app.

San Antonio Don

I’ve had this app now for about 10 days and I am hiking at altitudes varying from about 4,300 to over 9,000 feet. I’m finding this app to be very useful, and easy to use. I didn’t rate it 5 stars only because when I’m using it there is a tendency for it to change elevation readings even when I’m stable and not moving. It probably makes little overall difference though, unless you need a more accurate and non-wavering reading like for construction.

San Antonio Don, Jul 28, 2020

Like it, but...

I get different altitudes when using the app on my iPhone and iPad. The iPhone shows what I know to be, from several Topo maps, the correct elevation of our house. My husband has the same iPhone/iPad dichotomy. Also, the needle on the "upgraded" grey compass is the same color as cardinal lines so there’s little to no contrast, so hard to see in low light. The lettering is also very tiny,hard to parse. With a little tweaking this app could be way better.

Quality app

App is a great tool to use for exploring outdoors and is very accurate in doing so. Calculates elevation accurately as well. I checked Map Elevation on national database and it's accurate. The GPS Elevation fluctuates as it should (latest data points from satellite). Can't tell if GPS is accurate but looks good to me. Added flashlight feature is useful as to not having to switch app.

Description

View your altitude or elevation on stunning landscapes that adjust with the time of day. The barometer lets you track your altitude changes based on the change of pressure. Just set your reference pressure and altitude in order to use the Altimeter for seeing the difference in elevation of two points.

Great for hiking and other outdoor activities. The Compass shows your real-time orientation in this elevation app. 5-Star Reviews: "I love this app, wherever I go snowmobiling or hiking I always use it." "This app really works well. I enjoy checking the altitude wherever I am. Nice!" A simple and uncluttered interface to read: • Altitude or Elevation • Latitude • Longitude Features • Highest GPS accuracy for your device • Ground elevation from topographical map values • View in feet or meters • Built-in flashlight Sharing • Share screenshots with beautiful backgrounds • Share on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Email, or text message Use the Custom Background upgrade to take a photo from the top of a mountain and take a screenshot with your altitude overlaid to show your family & friends. Backgrounds (In-App purchases): • Meadow landscape (Illustrated) • Cityscape (Illustrated) • Mountains (Illustrated) • Abstract • Choose Your Own Note: Many customers with high altitude illnesses or sensitivities, such as chronic lung disease, asthma, COPD, & emphysema find this app useful for avoiding high altitudes. It is also used by hikers and climbers who want to avoid high-altitude cerebral edema (HACE) and high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). However, the altitude shown is potentially subject to large inaccuracies and this app should NOT be used as a primary device for determining altitude for medical reasons.
