### 3/5 — N by reading C V m I

*2025-09-21, version 1.2*

F CT T TTS no b d

### 2/5 — It’s Quite Off.

*2023-05-05, version 1.2*

I live on the sixth floor of an apartment building, about 1km from the ocean.  Altimeter reports that I’m at an elevation of 4m / 9’.   

Any idea what could be throwing the measurement so far off?

### 2/5 — Missed it by a lot

*2022-07-30, version 1.2*

Was at 9176 ft app said I was at 8823

### 3/5 — Maybe a little too simple

*2022-07-08, version 1.2*

When sitting still, the altitude will jump around a bit which I know is the result of variance in the gps positioning. So, my recommendation is to add another field below the altitude (in small numbers) that shows the gps accuracy. That would likely solve many of the issues where people complain the altitude jumps. Bring that, labeling the meters/feet buttons would take some of the Gideon out of them. I still don’t understand why meters is a tent and feet are represented by a ship? I guess?
Thanks for your hard work. A few tweaks and this would be great!

### 1/5 — Below Mona kea

*2021-03-24, version 1.0*

Not sure it’s working say 1564ft know we are a lot higher than that on the saddle road between Mona kea and Mona Lois

### 1/5 — Altimeter app is useless

*2020-05-31, version 1.0*

This is a ridiculously useless app. It never knows what my altitude on a hike even on a trail amd certainly notcwhen off it. I dont see any instructions anyehere i really give it 0 stars

### 4/5 — Ugly

*2020-05-03, version 1.0*

My wife and I your app in the same room and the altitude varies by 90 feet! The true elevation here is approx 4200’. Lousy!

### 2/5 — Very limited

*2020-01-18, version 1.0*

Disappointed in that it doesn’t record how high you go.

### 1/5 — Works, occasionally

*2019-08-12, version 1.0*

I guess you can’t expect much from a free app... this works sometimes, but mostly it doesn’t. 
Try one of the alternatives

### 2/5 — Simple, could be great

*2019-05-18, version 1.0*

Worked great, until it didn’t. Reads 0 now and no obvious way to fix it. Would give it more stars, but can’t until fixed.

### 2/5 — La complication ne se met pas à jour.

*2019-03-05, version 1.0*

Bonjour, 
Merci pour cette appli, mais la complication ne se met pas à jour lorsque l’Apple Watch est en mode montre. La complication reste toujours à la même altitude.

### 3/5 — Complain

*2019-02-08, version 1.0*

The application doesn’t give me more than 800 m altitude

As the subject says...

Doesn’t work the majority of the time and can’t change unit of measure from meters to feet.

*2022-05-14, version 1.2*

it is not as accurate as I expected and some time the location is not correct

### 1/5 — Not working

*2022-04-11, version 1.2*

Good

### 5/5 — ❤️

*2022-11-22, version 1.2*

❤️

### 5/5 — Very good app (However)

*2021-07-14, version 1.0*

There should be a way to view past altitudes

### 5/5 — Great

*2019-12-01, version 1.0*

Clean design and it works! Thanks.

### 5/5 — Altimeter

*2019-11-23, version 1.0*

Tells you how high you are - excellent

### 5/5 — A great review

*2019-10-24, version 1.0*

I left you a great review because that’s what you asked for. I was intimidated by your words and don’t want any problems. Indians know how to use it but I’m sure it’s a great app, looks really professional!

### 5/5 — app essenziale

*2019-07-06, version 1.0*

bella app, essenziale, fa quello che promette

### 5/5 — Best ever Altimetet

*2018-10-05, version 1.0*

This one’s the best. Very fast (1 second?), no “extras” which you don’t need, it just works!!

### 5/5 — Finalmente!

*2018-08-03, version 1.0*

Ci voleva un’app che usasse l’altimetro dell’apple watch!
Un grazie allo sviluppatore

### 4/5 — Question

*2021-12-01, version 1.2*

In central Florida, it’s reading 80 ft (above sea level, correct?), for the sign on the right, and 24 using the indicator on the left. Can this be correct?
