ALTIMETER & BAROMETER
Buy once. Own forever. The most complete offline altitude and barometric pressure tool for outdoor enthusiasts — no subscription, no ads, no account required.
WHY THIS APP
ONE-TIME PURCHASE — Pay once, use forever. No monthly fees, ever.
OFFLINE CORE READINGS — Sensors, charts, trips, and saved places work without an account. No data collection.
TRIPLE-SOURCE ALTITUDE — Combines GPS, barometric sensor, and manual calibration; calibrated barometric readings provide strong relative precision.
PRECISION BAROMETER — Real-time pressure in 6 units (hPa, inHg, mmHg, psi, atm, mbar) with local pressure history charts.
TRUE iPAD SUPPORT — Real split-view layout, not a stretched iPhone interface.

ACCURACY NOTES
GPS altitude accuracy is typically ±5-15m horizontally and ±10-30m vertically, depending on signal conditions. Barometric altitude offers roughly ±1m relative precision once calibrated. Not every device includes a barometer; the app automatically switches to GPS-only mode when one isn't available, and clearly indicates which data source is active.
IMPORTANT
This app is intended as a reference tool. Do not rely on it as your sole source of information for critical decisions in high-risk activities such as mountaineering, aviation, or diving. Always carry and trust professionally certified instruments in those situations. A full disclaimer is available in Settings at any time.
NO SUBSCRIPTION. NO ADS. NO DATA COLLECTED.
Buy once. Use it for as long as you need it.
