How do I get help? ### 1/5 — Needs an update *2018-11-14* No longer showing altitude, was a good app before ### 1/5 — Only works when looking at elevations in Japan! *2018-10-23* Was a good app until a recent update to IOS 12. The only place it will give altitudes is in Japan now. Is a corrected update coming soon? Version 1.04 still does not give elevation anywhere except when over the country of Japan. The app was great until the ios12 update. It was the best app available at the time and now it is useless and a waste of memory ### 1/5 — Altitude *2018-10-19* Has stopped working, no data shown. ### 1/5 — Altitude *2018-10-19* All I get is 0 m - 0 ft anyplace I check ### 1/5 — Down from Its Former Heights *2018-10-15* Where are the elevations? They've disappeared. I'm not even using IOS 12. ### 1/5 — Rubbish app *2018-03-05, version 1.0.2* Yet again after the update it still isn’t working. It can see my position on the map, pan etc but no height info ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2018-02-28, version 1.0.1* Disappointed ### 1/5 — Don't work *2016-01-26* Worked for a minute then stopped ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on my phone *2021-04-15* It is all zeros when I go to look up the elevation of a location. (I’m in Kansas) I didn’t feel the need to try in other states, since I was looking for the elevation here. If the developers get it working again, I will update my rating. ### 1/5 — Click bait only. Don’t waste your time *2020-11-05* This program doesn’t even make an attempt at giving you altitude. Just says 0 feet no matter where on the map you click. It does however try to take you to several different gaming sites which is why it is a worthless Clickbait app and should be taken down. ### 1/5 — Used to work *2020-11-03* This used to be a great app. You can easily browse the map and get altitude but now it is reading 0 ft everywhere. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — 0.0m 0.0f *2020-01-21* Don’t think so. This app is not working. Deleting now. ### 1/5 — Not even close *2019-10-02* Says my altitude is 0’0” yet my house is at highest point in my town. Pretty useless. Deleting app. ### 1/5 — It says the elevation is zero no matter where I drive to *2019-09-02* It says the elevation is zero no matter where I drive to. ### 1/5 — Altitude display *2019-07-18* Not working like it use to. It’s not displaying altitude, It displays all zeros ### 1/5 — Only works on map of Japan now. *2019-06-04* One other reviewer said this problem has been since the latest IOS update. I’ve used this app before many many times and loved it. It just needs an update to work with the IOS update. Please PLEASE do an update. I wonder why it only works on Japan. ### 1/5 — Not working at all *2019-03-29* No longer works. This used to be the best app for hiking and answering questions like “how high is that hill over there” but then it started quitting and now the update has no data at all. Such a shame. ### 1/5 — No height ! *2019-01-06, version 1.0.4* Doesn’t show height . Very disappointed ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2018-05-01* Great! It's awesome and I love it ### 5/5 — Great App *2017-06-24* Great App, easy to use, and useful information ### 5/5 — Excellent *2016-09-28* It shows me my altitude as well as the altitude of places that I am thinking of going to. This is really helpful because I get altitude sickness above a certain height and need to know whether to bring my altitude meds. Easy to use! ### 5/5 — Awesome!!! *2015-10-21* Will give the altitude of any location! Easy to use ### 4/5 — Good little app! *2014-12-07, version 1.0.0* Good work. Nice app. Handy to see instant heights. ### 3/5 — Doesn’t work *2017-12-31, version 1.0.1* Doesn’t work ### 3/5 — - or +? *2015-03-21, version 1.0.0* So when it shows you the heights you don't know if it's above or below sea level ### 2/5 — Not reading properly *2018-12-22* Is not working like it used to it won’t give me elevation results. ### 2/5 — Meh *2016-07-30* Got the app as an aid to a ballistic calculator since inputting altitude is necessary to get accurate data. Once downloaded, and upon tapping the "get altitude" icon, and incorrect reading (602') vs the correct reading (615') comes immediately followed by the app closing. Happens each time you tap the altitude icon. No exceptions. The end. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
