Great app and support
Neat little app...I noticed a problem with the 1.0 version, emailed them and heard back within an hr or so. After emailing back and forth they figured out problem and had an updated app within a couple of days.
Needs a little work to be really useful
At present the pressure shown is the absolute pressure at the height of the device. For weather station purposes the pressure corrected to sea level is normally used, so for example today at my home at a height of 200 ft above sea level with an absolute pressure shown as 999mB, the sea level pressure would be approx 1006mB. (This was calculated using an online calculator).The result compares well with my own weather station barometers and the local airport.
Please can this simple calculation be added to the application.
I do not understand the altitude from pressure reading given, as that cannot be known unless you know what the pressure is accurately at sea level. I assume that you are using some standard pressure which of course will hardly ever be correct. So the altitude calculated this way is pointless and totally wrong at my location.
Relative altitude measurement is fine, and makes complete sense with the reset function.
The altitude from GPS appears to work well, not sure if Apple look up the height from the latitude longitude from the GPS, or if they use the GPS height measurement directly. For my location it aligns well with the OS Map height contours.
Incidentally the iPad Air 2 Wifi only model I am using has no built in GPS but obtains the location from my iPhone on the same Wifi network I believe, clever stuff.
A pressure trend indicator is the most useful thing for a barometer, as this indicates the weather situation more than most things.
The final thing is the scale of pressures on the dial, this is far too large. 930mB to 1070mB would have been enough.

Clean and nice
The interface is nice an clean. Pretty good software
