### 5/5 — Tout simple et au top

*2026-05-28*

Moi qui adore chercher l’altitude en un coup d’œil. Bientôt un widget j’espère.

### 1/5 — Gadgets inutile

*2026-05-27*

Je voudrais bien qu’on m’explique pourquoi quand j’ouvre cette application à la fois sur mon iPad, mon iPhone et mon Apple Watch j’obtiens 3 valeurs d’altitude différentes.
Les 3 appareils sont à jour et à côté les uns des autres.
Bref application pas chère mais encore trop chère pour ce que c’est.
Je me suis fait enfler de 1,99€

**Developer response:** Bonjour,

Merci pour votre retour. L’altitude affichée dépend des données fournies par chaque appareil au système. Même côte à côte, un iPhone, un iPad et une Apple Watch peuvent utiliser des capteurs et niveaux de précision différents, ce qui peut entraîner des écarts.

Altly affiche aussi un indicateur de précision pour aider à interpréter la valeur. Je continue à travailler sur l’amélioration de la clarté de ces mesures.
