Altimeter+ for Negative User Reviews
✓ App doesn't openSo I've paid for the app and loaded it but it won't install onto the watch. Try another app..Version: 2.0
✓ Was good.I worked well until the last iOS update to my iPod touch. It no longer works..Version: 2.0
✓ Waste of moulaWhat a waste of money. -gps, aster and barometric pressure all show different altitude readings. -the dial sometimes works -there is no compass -there is no actual barometric pressure readings(kpa etc), only altitude. -had to update software on watch to use and then it said the app needs to be updated to work on the next watch update. Don’t bother people..Version: 2.1
✓ No good above groundTook on an aircraft (not over 10,000') and does not work on either mode when airborne. Complete failure when cell coverage is lost..Version: 1.3
✓ This app is a scamI have an Apple Watch 4 and this app is not show in ANY complication of ANY of the watch’s face’s. It doesn’t not deliver what the seller promises then. Do not purchase. I am running iOS 5.2.Version: 2.2
✓ IssuesPlus or minus 10ft does not work well when you live at or near sea level. They should tell you this before purchase..Version: 2.3
✓ 50/50This altimeter is ok but it only gives a sea level altitude. This app would get 4 stars of a rating from me if one could set it to either AGL and or for Sea level. A Kollsmen window and Barber pole would earn it 5+ stars.Version: 2.2
✓ Dependent on iPhone!!I was under the impression that this app would be independent from my iPhone 7 but NO you do need to turn on Bluetooth for it to work with the Apple Watch . What is the purpose of this app when you need your phone close by....am I missing something here? I was deceived first hand when I downloaded this app for .99cents and now I feel like a sucker....don't download this app if you want the Apple Watch to be independent from your phone !!.Version: 2.1
✓ Doesn't work alone with Apple WatchI was looking for an application that could measure altitude without my iPhone present. This app looks great but falls short on delivery..Version: 2.0
✓ Clunky on watch....Clunky on watch, had to open in phone to start working. Disappointed there wasn’t a simple watch compilation either. Not worth the $.Version: 2.3
✓ No complications for Watch 4Nice app and watch app but was hoping for complications for watch faces. Seller doesn’t explicitly say it is available but it should be for a paid app..Version: 2.2
✓ Unit of measurementHow do I change the UOM from meters to feet?.Version: 2.1
✓ Nice lookingIt has a cool look, like an old, analog aviation altimeter. Unfortunately it does not work and the interface is unfathomable garbage. It wants calibration, and I know my current barometric in inches of Hg, but it does not seem to know that is, nor have a decimal to enter the measurement any closer than the nearest whole number. Two free ones I downloaded work great, while this one is shiny garbage. It should be easier to get a refund when when buying something that is clearly just fraud. This thing is a wooden nutmeg..Version: 2.3
✓ It’s not working on Apple WatchI recently purchased this and used it while boarding an aircraft to jump, but I only need a reference to my SD altimeter . Do I need to bring my phone to work?.Version: 2.3
✓ Unusable in daylightPlease, for the love of god, provide the ability to set the background color! I can’t believe that the developers ever used this in the outdoors. Dark blue on a black background is completely invisible outdoors making an otherwise excellent app absolutely worthless in real world applications. Unless you’re in a darkened cockpit that would already have an altimeter. I had to delete it and use an inferior product that I could use..Version: 2.3
✓ Will not be supported in next osJust purchased this app, wanting to use it for hiking, first time i start it on my watch, I get the message that it will not work with the next OS, which comes out in 3 days. Such a waste of money. I immediately regret this purchase. I guess that’s why it “on sale”..Version: 2.1
✓ Needs updatesApp is great but it hasn’t been updated for the iPhone X and it doesn’t work on the Apple Watch without having the iPhone present. The new Apple Watch has a barometric altimeter and GPS built in so no need to be tethered to a phone to function..Version: 2.1
✓ Just purchasedBlank black screen. Not much good..Version: 2.1
✓ HimalayaVery good app I am in India and it s working very well.Version: 1.3
✓ Very poor installation and user experienceA complete hack job of an app. Will not correctly install on watch 5 with cellular. Many circular error messages. No english language support. Barometric pressure at US airports is in inches, and no way to enter the local pressure to calibrate. Watch says “Requires iPhone. Please launch “altimeter plus” on iphone to complete setup. Did that. Nothing. Dead end. Deleted. Reinstalled. Both on phone and watch. Nothing. Phone app will not function until both phone and watch are rebooted. Serious pairing problems. Watch app will not work without phone..Version: 2.2
✓ AGLI like this app. I would like to see an enhancement allowing the user to zero current altitude and provide AGL (above ground level altitude. ).Version: 2.3
✓ Great on the iPhone X but no so much on the Apple Watch 3I purchase the app as I wanted it to work independently on my Apple Watch 3 LTE. However looking at altitude on the watch often shows a false reading which is only fixed once I calibrate the iPhone X barometer via GPS reference. There doesn’t seem to be a way to calibrate the Apple Watch barometer through forced touch, so I’m left thinking it’s just an extension of the iPhone rather than acting independently?.Version: 2.1
✓ DisappointedDoesn't seem to work with the iPhone 3G. The Aster function doesn't work and the numbers don't align properly, often overlapping each other. The numbers that do show up bear no relation to ones altitude and the app often crashes. It's probably meant for the 3GS or 4, but I couldn't find anything to say that it was not compatible with the 3G, so I bought and installed it. The free one I have is better by miles.Version: 1.3
✓ Annoying display and poor accuracyThe dial altimeter only has 1 hand, so it’s only accurate to the hundreds position. Instead of smoothly incrementing up and down, one digit at a time, the digital altimeter spins wildly, in one direction only, like a slot-machine, making you think it’s broken. You cannot tell at a glance, whether you are ascending or descending. ...you have to wait for the slot-machine to stop spinning to see whether your altitude is higher or lower than the previous reading..Version: 2.2
✓ No iphone 5 supportDoesnt fit iphone 5 screen. Amazing app please make it fit iphone 5 screen..Version: 1.6
✓ Stop working on iOS 13This app worked great for a while and now crashes when the Barometer is selected or the settings button is selected. Can’t update the version if it needs updating since all it does is crashes. Developer’s support page is not in English so that isn’t any help either..Version: 2.3
✓ Problem with updateThe previous version worked well, but since the update I'm getting nonsense readings..Version: 2.0
✓ Alt not good.I bought this app only to skydive using my Apple watch and its not accurated at all. I know I didnt pay much for it but it does not do its job. Unhappy with the purchased..Version: 2.1
✓ Dial does NOT point as a real altimeter does.Disappointed ! Nice to calibrate MBs in App, but needles pointing in the wrong place will disappoint the pilot in you. Even a MS Flight Simulator gamer will tell you this huge error..Version: 2.1
✓ Not worth paying forAdds nothing you can’t already get from the free compass that comes with iPhone or Apple Watch, and it prompts you to “calibrate” every day..Version: 2.3
✓ Want to love his appIt is accurate and great to look at. But it is a power hog. Drained my Apple Watch3 battery in part of a day. Now I turn it on to take readings and then turn it off. Hoping the developer will improve power consumption..Version: 2.1
✓ Complications don’t work on new watch facesI bought this app to get altitude on a watchface. It turns out that the app needs to be updated to get complications on the new watch faces. Please update..Version: 2.2
✓ AltimeterFascinating app.Version: 1.6
✓ Why won't it workWhy won't this App work? When the screen says "Elevation model query underway" it closes the App. Does this on both my iPhone4 & iPad2. Anybody got any suggestions Cheers.Version: 1.3
