Barometer & Altimeter Pro for Negative User Reviews
✓ Guess what is ridiculous?When apps are updated, the idea is to fix bugs and increase functionality. Not this one. Both of the most valuable functions - the trend and the widget - have been removed. How was this supposed to be “progress” and in what world was this deemed a good idea? Saying it’s been streamlined to come in at a <1mb download is a weird flex when most phones now have tons of storage and core functions are taken away to do so..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Good but...I really do not know how to read the altitude..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Someone needs to be firedWas working then someone decides to update it. Looks awful and no confidence it is accurate. Deleted..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Trend is not working in this versionThis is a great Barometer/Altimeter, but as others have mentioned the Trend function is completely broken in this version. The line graph is extremely jagged and jumps wildly up and down; and the value at the end of the line does not even correspond to the currently displayed value. Other than that, the app has a clean, appealing design, and it is easy to read and use..Version: 2.5.1
✓ Update is awfulWho updates an app to take away all of its useful features and make it worthless? Apparently the designer of this app. I used this app for years to help track patterns and help with my migraines. Now it is useless. And when it updated it removed my historic data I had saved. I am so disappointed in this app update and will be getting rid of it to get something else as it’s not completely useless to me..Version: 5.0.0
✓ DisappointedSince program has been rewritten it has lost features and doesn’t give me the easy reference it had before.Version: 5.0.0
✓ New updateNew update is to basic I use it for fishing and now I have to find a new one.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Trend doesn’t recordEven when opening the app the trend doesn’t record. You need to open the trend part of the app every time for it to record. What a pain!.Version: 4.1.1
✓ Complicated- and trend function limits itselfI have no idea if this app is just downloading and displaying information from the internet, or using sensors in the phone. Also the app will not store any data so the trend function is useless. Finally why do I need to research what the difference between absolute altitude and relative elevation is? Why can't it just simply tell me how high above sea level I am? frustrating.Version: 2.4.3
✓ Not improvedNot sure why this app was rewritten when it worked so well in the other version. The new version appeared about a week ago. It is no longer user friendly or detail oriented like the old version. There are no instructions for use on top of the completely rewritten views/info. It is unfortunate as I have been using this app as a reliable tool for over 6 years to aid with my migraines. Not sure what I will do now..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Still doesn’t work properly.It is curr showing Sea Level Pressure as 1039hpa, which is wrong. It’s 982. Everything is set correctly and I have other barometer apps which are correctly showing 982 so I’m not sure what’s going on with this app but it is reporting the wrong sea level pressure..Version: 5.0.0
✓ How is this app used??Is it made for the average person or ???.Version: 4.1.1
✓ A 5 star before - what happened?!This was perfect before. And it transitioned well to my 14 pro iPhone. I opened it yesterday and everything was different. I don't even get the face with the clock style barometer. Worst of all, no more ability to look at trending at different hours up to days and weeks, even months. I will delete and try to reload. So disappointed as this was perfect for keeping track of barometric changes related to migraines. I will change my review if it improves..Version: 5.0.0
✓ DisappointedI loved the app BEFORE the latest update. The key element was the TREND!!!! As it is it’s useless for me. Greater accuracy doesn’t make up for losing this vital feature.😖.Version: 5.0.0
✓ OkWrote with question about 2 months ago. No response. Doesn't seem to update in the background. App works ok..Version: 2.4.3
✓ Premium features disappearedThe new app has little functionality, even less options to customise, doesn’t have clear settings and deleted all my history. Additionally, it doesn’t work well with the widget. Graphs are not there anymore and these were informative, displaying how rapidly the changes in atmospheric pressure set on. Big shame. Premium features have also disappeared..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Nice but could be betterLike many others my main concern is the change in pressure. It’s inconvenient that the phone must be unlocked and the app running ‘on top’, not in the background to get a contiguous plot. This means that to get the best information I can’t be using anything else on the phone. If it could log in the background I’d love it. If the slope of the graph could be logged it’d really be great. There are a couple of other things that I think would help, but those are the big ones. Thanks to the developer for a good program, but it does have room for improvement if IOS limitations allow..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Poor Graphics and InaccurateAs above, it’s graphics are outdated and do not assist in assessing trends etc.. The readings are frequently inaccurate. I hate to say it but it’s a really poor attempt; I have ‘Accurate Barometer Pro’ on my Samsung phone, it’s much better: graphics are far better and it s just nicer to look at..Version: 4.1.1
✓ Waiting for bug fixes on iOS 10Very good app til iOS 10 broke it.Hope bug fixes from Apple or app developers to fix this issue.Get the app to recognised the barometer sensor will make the app work again!Hope asap thanks!.Version: 2.5
✓ Old version was what I needed.I usd the graph to understand my rheumatoid arthritis pain. Sudden shifts low or high called for a different pain medicine. I knew not to bother with the usual. It doesn’t do anything with this pain. Conversely, I don’t need the heavy meds on a daily basis. Fortunately my doctor understood that too and didn’t try to get me to take both all the time. I wish that you could have kept the old and just written a new, or maybe you can add the graph back. Now I’ll have to guess. Thank for the years I had with the old one to learn to understand the relationship of air pressure to RA pain..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Could be good BUTIt seems the only way you can get to see a trend in pressure is by opening the app and setting the pressure. Unless you do so you see no trend. Hopefully someone can tell me what I have missed. Seems the app will be confined to the bin as being not a lot of use..Version: 4.1.1
✓ IOS 10 issueStopped working with the iOS 10.0.1 upgrade. Used to work perfectly. Hope a fix will be available soon...Version: 2.4.3
✓ No graph?Missing the graph from previous version. I used to use this to monitor trend in air pressure as I suffer from inability to regulate my inner ear pressure. Checking graph helped me. A list if numbers in History is not useful. Please reinstate graph..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Used to be goodThe 17.4 update has rendered this app unusable on my iPad. Now removed..Version: 5.0.0
✓ GroanThis was a great app but since the update it has stopped working and it looks horrible too..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Great Ap! (Don't buy the in-Ap purchase)Great ap if you're a non-scientific person who just wants to know the barometric pressure and altitude. It also shows a graph of altitude and barometric pressure over time - which is really nice! Don't pay for it though. The app offers to turn of the advert banner at the bottom of the screen for $1.49 (AUD) but it doesn't work. Save your money. (Developer, could you please fix this).Version: 2.5
✓ Only records when you open the appThis app looks nice and has some cool features, but even though it has a "Trends" page (which tracks the barometric pressure over a few weeks), it only records the pressure when you open the app. I was hoping/expecting it to pull pressure data from a weather database, which would make the trends page more useful. I've been trying to see if my sinus headaches are linked to specific changes in barometric pressure, but unless I'm checking this app every minute (it doesn't record the pressure in the background either), this is not a very useful app..Version: 3.0.0
✓ StuckI have had the app for some time. I recently travelled to Europe and back and the altitude stayed on my home measurement the whole time. Useless!.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Does not work on Apple WatchI really like the app on the phone but unfortunately it doesn’t show on my Apple Watch..Version: 3.0.0
✓ IOS10IOS 10 seems to have broken Barometer..Version: 2.4.3
✓ Every feature I loved is gone…Talk about devastated. I’ve never even left a review before this moment. I’ve been using this app probably since it was released to track my pressure drop migraines. I could see when drops occurred on the graph and if the times lined up with symptoms. I could quickly glance at the color-coded dial and know if I was at risk. I could check the pressure at a glance with the widget. I used this app every single day and recommend it to every migraine sufferer as I know as a much needed tool! I noticed today that the widget was just gone. Couldn’t add it back either. Opened the app to find it completely redesigned and every feature I used is now gone as well. The graph is gone entirely. The color-coded dial is gone. The widget is no more. It’s completely barebones. Sure, it looks pretty, but it’s lost all usefulness and I had to find a new app. Beyond bummed..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Always the same readingThis used to be an excellent app, but stopped reading properly after iPadOS 17.4 update. Since this app update however it now only reads 1010mb never varies. Even the brilliantly laid out Widget has disappeared. I much preferred the original “detailed“ look rather than the stripped down look (and missing the Widget). Sorry but don’t fix what wasn’t broken. (iPadOS 17.4.1.).Version: 5.0.0
✓ BarometerPaid for pro upgrade never got it waste of my money.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Great to bad :-(Used this daily for years… until update! All the features I like are now gone. Please roll back this update or adjust it. Honestly it’s like this version was created by someone else it is so different. It has been so helpful until now, I sincerely hope that it will be changed so it can again be my beloved app and I can edit this review. - Watch app is now gone, my favorite part - Please add option to have dark screen only. White is rather jarring, too bright, for migraine people and others with sensory sensitivity. - Trends screen in former version was great, loved being able to track changes with options from 12hrs to 30days and the slider bar to see specifics. Now you’re asking me to look at a list of numbers, and other info, and do math. Really?! - Widget gone. I used widget on iPad and on phone used the old style widgets you can add only to the “today” screen. Both types are gone..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Freezing on main pageNewest version freezes on main page. No other button and icons will work. It continues to work and adjust the numbers on the barometer. Nothing else works..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Update has ruined this app it doesn’t work!!!Used this app a lot over the years. Then the update for my benefit “uses less space” fantastic certainly will as about to delete. Thank you software developer much appreciated..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Was the best, no longer workingHopefully a blip and will be updated..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Totally broken after recent ‘update’This app used to be brilliant - I have used it for years. Then recently the dev ‘rewrote it from the ground up’. Now it does not work at all - literally does absolutely nothing - is totally unresponsive - on iPad and iPhone. This ‘update’ is how to wreck a perfectly good app. Very disappointing and frustrating. Update: No response from the dev after two weeks, so I’m deleting the app..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Barometric trend gone with updateThis update has removed the information that I valued most..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Upgrade has ruined a fantastic appWhat has happened?? Was a brilliant app, stylish with loads of useful information. What happened to the extremely useful history graph The new version is garbage. I will be deleting this version as not fit for purpose.Version: 5.0.0
✓ App has been downgraded since UpdateI used to love this app and I used it frequently to check the barometric pressure since it affects my arthritis. However, since the latest update going to analog from the digital, I have lost interest in using it and am actively looking for a suitable replacement. I can deal with the analog barometer. However, I really miss the graphic display of the history including the ability to adjust for number of days. It was probably a 4.8 star rating before the major downgrade of your recent update..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Latest iteration has ruined a good appThis latest iteration has comprehensively ruined what was a bloody good app. On the barometer screen the dial is so basic as to be pretty much useless, and the long paragraph at the bottom is totally pointless. The settings do not give as much in the way of choice and the way I had it set up has now been wiped out…. It’s now totally inaccurate for me and this area. A perfect example of how to ruin an app..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Clear readings but adding a notification setting would be hugeThis app gives accurate and easy to read information. If they’d add a setting which allowed me to get a notification when the barometric pressure was going to change (say, a 12 hour warning) it would be a total game changer for me and I think every migraine sufferer as well. Pressure changes of as little as 6 (from a base line of 1013) are enough to trigger migraines, and if we could use the knowledge of an upcoming change to premedicate, we could avoid having to do that AFTER the migraine has already started, which is more difficult and often requires higher doses..Version: 4.1.1
✓ No longer usefulWas absolutely perfect for my needs till the update. I needed that graph and widget. Now it’s practically useless for me..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Only updates graph when openI like the app but the graph only updates when I open it. This creates a very choppy and inaccurate graph of the barometric pressure history. If I don't open the app for a few days the graph just draws a straight line between what the pressure was the last time I opened it and the current value. All the data in between is missing. The graph needs to read and record the pressure at some fixed or user defined I web all. That would make it a 5 star app..Version: 2.6.1
✓ Between 3 and 3.5I like the simple gauges. I don't like the small font size of the day and time on the movable line. I don't like the time is only in military time. I'd like to see a chart with a line graph of the barometric pressure with the days of the week. Otherwise you have to move the line and read try to read the small font. Paid for the upgrade which I thought would have more features and info. The upgrade isn't worth it. Getting a pretty display option isn't worth the $1.99.Version: 2.5.1
✓ Old barometerDon’t like the new app, put the old one back and no widget.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Altimeter doesn’t work rightI wanted to ask a question but this is the only option I was given. Every time I look at the altimeter it’s different. My house varies between 160 feet to 866 feet. So something isn’t working right. I wanted to know if it’s some setting in my phone maybe causing the problem, or I didn’t adjust a setting in the app correctly. It definitely knows when I raise or lower the phone, so it’s measuring. But it’s always different. The barometer seems accurate..Version: 4.1.1
✓ No widgets anymore and all paid addons goneApp was perfect for last few years. Now all widgets and add ons what was in-app purchase gone. Shame. Will change my rating if previous features come back..Version: 5.0.0
✓ No Settings to ChangeI have this Barometer app installed on IPad Air 2 & iPhone X and works well. Does not appear on apps list in my device settings so I am not able to change any settings within the app, that’s if there are any!.Version: 4.0.2
✓ Terrible Update !What on earth has happened here ? The app we have known for years has gone & been replaced with a very basic & cheap looking one. Trend has gone along with all the adjustments, backgrounds & widgets. Extremely unimpressed being as I paid for the enhanced app & now I have a basic app that only displays in portrait view & is slow to respond. Why would anyone choose to do this to an app ?.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Was great, give me back my 30-day trend graphI’ve really liked this app up until now, but the feature I liked most is just gone. The Trends page used to give several options between 6 hours and 30 days and it was fascinating to compare the pressure over that length of time. Now the Trend is just the time and pressure, no graph. Also the app says I’m at -86 feet elevation when I’m right at sea level or up to about 10 feet above, and wants access to my fitness app. Might delete and find an app that has a Trends graph, I don’t like this at all any more..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Ruined by updateThe old style was so nice, even liked the idea of tapping it to make the needle move. Dislike the new style so much I’m deleting it.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Nice Barometer but does not track without app openOne of the best ways to use a barometer is to look at the trend of pressure change. This is tracked in this app but only when you open the app can you set a data point that is graphed. Ideally this app should create a data point periodically and consistently all the time. I suppose there is some kind of IOS limitation preventing this from happening. Not as useful without that but otherwise nice interface..Version: 4.1.1
✓ No automated graph?I only used this app for the graph and widget. The widget on my Home Screen automatically updated the graph. Now both are gone. This app WAS great because I could find the past history without manually creating bookmarks. What’s left to separate this from other apps? Not sure. But it looks like I’ll find out because I need to find a replacement to get back what I just lost. Edit: check out “Barometer plus” after some tweaking to settings I can get a widget and auto updating history graph that updates every 5 minutes. It can access your phones barometer or a local weather station. The graph is even better than the one this app used to have..Version: 5.0.0
✓ New app reads incorrectlyThe old app displayed the correct pressure (as indicated by a mercury barometer). As soon as the new version uploaded, the pressure was instantly displayed incorrectly. The pressure is fixed and unchanging at 1010 hPa. Further there doesn’t seem to be a way of having a black background as illustrated on the App Store..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Something gone wrongOpened the barometer today and it said there is no barometer on your phone (7). Not best pleased as paid the extra for something that doesn’t work..Version: 3.0.0
✓ What happened to the app after the Apple update April 6, 2024?!Several years ago, I paid to upgrade the app, so I could change the face between several different options, plus, I was able to show 2 different pressure units on the face at the same time. Those are all gone now! I do NOT like the way app looks now. It’s extremely sparse and basic looking. There’s no longer a chart showing what the barometer has done the last 6 hours to 30 days. It is totally off and when I put in my altitude, it’s really off. I don’t know what is going on, but please, bring back the old version. Also, I’d like a refund of my money, since I’m no longer getting what I paid for. This version is no way, shape, or form, a better version of the old!.Version: 5.0.0
✓ I wish I had not updatedThe ‘new’ version is terrible, it looks awful, very jerky movement, no trends option. It use to look and work great. If I had known I would have not updated the app..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Ruined it!You no longer have graphs for the history. Can’t see the trends. Why would u do that..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Update step backwardsWow what a step backwards. I used the app for years, enjoyed the classic view that match’s a real barometer. Every worked . The update changed everything. The graphics went from classic to almost just a circuit and two lines. The response time went from instant to a long lag. If I was loading it today for the first time I would not get the app..Version: 5.0.0
✓ What have you done ???What have you done with this App ? Not impressed with the new look, TOO simplified for me, I miss the original faces it once had. As I am a keen fisherman, I prefer the look of the “Fishermen’s” face, but in general it has become TOO SIMPLISTIC..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Looks awful!On the plus side at least it now offers access to Motion & Fitness which allows it to work again. That’s about it - new design looks awful and not a patch on the lovely traditional dial previously available. The marker seems to set to sea level even when choosing Station reading. A work in progress that will hopefully be restored to it’s original look..Version: 5.0.0
✓ GoneThis app does not work anymore stoped sep 5th Started working again sep 12 New app does not work at all as of march 30th 2024 Hands stay at the bottom no movement tried another down load but the same……..been using the app for many years UPDATE the app is all working now with no problems..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Ruined!I have had this app on my phone for years but this latest update has made me want to delete it. The handy ‘trend’ feature has been removed and the lettering obscures the features..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Not there yetThis app is supposed to work with 17.4 but although the pointer moves I cannot set the marker. Let’s hope a little bit more experience will enable all the corrections to be made for the barometer to represent the true value..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Only while usingI want to give this app a 5 star rating, but I don’t understand why it only gives the option to track your location while you’re using it. That means it will only record accurate data while the app is on the screen running. For this app to really be useful, it needs to be able to give accurate readings the whole time the phone is on. That way you can actually track the changes in pressure over time while you are not using the app. Without that, this app is just a toy. The tracking of pressure over time graph is not even close to accurate unless you check the app every minute of the day..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Has stopped being accurate?App was work fine for over a year. Has been giving me inaccurate reading since October 2019. It’s too bad because I like this app. Deleted it off my iPhone and Apple Watches today..Version: 3.0.0
✓ IOS 10App not working after iOS 10 update..Version: 2.4.3
✓ New look is unpleasantDisplay no longer animates, it just jumps to current pressure so you can’t visually see a trend as the dial moves like old version. New look is ugly. Bring back the old display. Bugs in changing scale, they don’t apply all the time. Don’t know if I’ll keep it now..Version: 5.0.0
✓ Latest release broke itRewritten from the ground up and now broken. Now it reads station pressure is always 1010 hpa (although I’m 600 meters above sea level) and sea level pressure is always 1085 hpa.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Gone from brilliant to unusableThis was a fabulous app until the re-write, now it’s virtually unreadable, and doesn’t rotate on the iPad in landscape mode. Very disappointing!!.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Not as good as it used to beAs a sufferer of seasonal cluster headaches brought on by changes in barometric pressure, I found this app invaluable for helping to predict when headaches may occur. Unfortunately, the ‘trend’ feature that I used most now doesn’t seem to function as it once did, so it’s impossible for me to see in which direction pressure is actively shifting over time. App removed.Version: 4.1.1
✓ The New Release is AWFULThe new release removes precision and also deletes various appearances of the barometer, leaving the only option a bland and sketchy looking thing. I used to love this app. and the so-called “trend“ no longer shows a trend it makes you click each time you want to store a point. Before it made a very nice graph that showed over 30 days or less the ups and downs of atmospheric pressure. This “upgrade“ is a horrible change. I’ve deleted the app from my phone and my iPad and I am totally disgusted that I bothered to upgrade it because it ruined what I really used to like. Great job, not!.Version: 5.0.0
✓ Doesn't installFor some reason doesn't install on my Apple Watch 3 and only on my iPhone. I have an SE tho but since I have a barometer in my watch I'd want to use it..Version: 3.0.0
✓ Curate’s Egg.Beautiful Barometer page. Altimeter page a bit messy. Trend page should be the most interesting page but I can’t make any sense of it..Version: 4.1.1
