### 5/5 — Fiable et simple

*2025-06-26*

Une appli qui ne prend aucune place sur le téléphone (778ko, moitié moins qu’une image), fiable (aucune donnée prélevée), belle et gratuite ! Que demander de plus ?

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-02-08*

This app properly charged a simple fee so that we wouldn't have to experience ads but then when I tried to use it, even when I'm standing still in front of my house outdoors with a good signal it constantly changes every split second to a different altitude reading.

### 2/5 — Only shows where the iPad is located

*2024-10-18*

### 5/5 — Sehr praktisch

*2024-05-26*

Tut exakt, was es soll. Und das ist gut so!

### 5/5 — Für alle Fälle…

*2024-04-12*

Als Küstenbewohner brauche ich diese App nicht wirklich. Aber manchmal ist man ja auch woanders unterwegs und es interessiert einen schon mal, wie hoch der Ausguck ist und warum alles im Tal so klein aussieht. 
Die App ist schnell, unkompliziert und grafisch schlicht, aber effektiv.

### 5/5 — Altimètre performant

*2024-02-01*

En général je compare avec les altitudes données sur les panneaux indicateurs et à quelques mètres près c’est bon

### 5/5 — Funktioniert einfach

*2024-01-25*

Zeigt die Höhe flott an. Werbefrei, Datensparsam. Was will man mehr 👍

### 3/5 — Maps Option Traps You

*2024-01-01*

If you select the maps option, there is no way to get out of the maps option in order to go back to the main page of the app. You must close the app in order to get back to the actual Altimeter page. This is very annoying and not what I expect from a professionally made app.

### 5/5 — Good application برنامج ممنتاز

*2023-11-09*

افضل البرامج لمعرفة الارتفاع ولمعرفة مكانك على الخريطة it is the best application to know your location on map  and to locate your altitude 
Thanks for making it free
