### 3/5 — History graph often not available

*2026-07-30, version 3.7.6*

Was very happy with the app, however, recently the history graph has not been working. As I found this a very helpful feature it’s frustrating that it doesn’t display all the time

### 3/5 — Good - could be great

*2026-06-17, version 3.7.6*

The app concept is great. Slightly outdated design but has some really good ideas to make this one of the best ones in the App Store for simple barometric monitoring like history, a main face dial that shows acceptable ranges and typical weather at that pressure, custom notifications etc. 

What could be improved:
History chart doesn’t match up with the live view. It’s regularly a whole point off (29.x instead of 28.x) in the chart. For better ux, using a curve instead of linear lines would be nicer to see. 

For notifications, sometimes you click on one and it opens the app but there is no way to see what that notification was or specifically when it happened so you’re not sure if it was an old one or not. Having the notifications from the app stored with timestamps would be great. 

Lastly, Sea level adjustment via gps is nice but would be better to track live altitude adjustments while traveling using the internal tools of iPhone instead of map data to make the adjustment live. Perhaps it does this but I just notice if I have it up and travel it thinks my pressure has changed when it’s just a different altitude.

### 2/5 — Great at first

*2026-06-13, version 3.7.6*

Loved this app and then it just stopped working. Deleting and looking for a new one.

### 2/5 — get rid of ads & you have a good app

*2026-06-13, version 3.7.6*

The app is ok, but the ads are wayyyy too much. When you open the app there’s several ads, just checking the pressure ads pop up. It’s just way too much. I understand it’s free, buts just too much. I would not mind paying a few dollars. But I haven’t seen that option.

### 2/5 — Disappearing markers

*2026-05-08, version 3.7.6*

Needles have disappeared. Tried re-loading the App, but nothing changes. Totally useless right now to be honest

### 3/5 — Great app, fatal ad strategy.

*2026-05-06, version 3.7.6*

Developing an app is expensive. And developers like to make money. It’s the system we are in: ads pay for stuff. I get it. 

This app, though, grabs the entire screen, and all audio, so frequently and so aggressively that the app isn’t useable; can’t run it long enough without full screen and audio take over. 

There are lots of ways to use ads without alienating users. Let’s hope this excellent developer gives monetization a re-think.

### 2/5 — Does not graph

*2026-02-28, version 3.7.6*

I used to love this app but now it only seems to give me the current pressure and I can’t graph anything past or future

### 4/5 — Potential widget glitch

*2026-01-27, version 3.7.6*

This has been very helpful with managing / predicting dysautonomia symptoms as a result of pressure changes. The only thing is that the widget and the app have differing values. Usually it’s a 10 point difference but today it’s much more random ? Is this a glitch? I don’t know which reading is correct

### 2/5 — Barometer alerts

*2026-01-26, version 3.7.6*

Barometer alerts are backwards. 
When the readings high getting alerts worse weather soon.

### 4/5 — Отличное приложение

*2026-01-09*

Отличное приложение, отслеживаю по нему график изменения давления, потому что метеочувствительный. Сделайте пожалуйста светлую тему, от тёмной темы у меня вываливаются глаза, очень болят

### 2/5 — Am Zuverlässigsten ist die Werbung….

*2026-01-08*

Habe mir die App geladen um einen Druckverlauf über Tage anschauen zu können. Genau das funktioniert leider regelmäßig nicht aus unerfindlichen Gründen.

### 4/5 — I use it for migraines

*2025-12-31, version 3.7.6*

It’s very easy to use I haven’t figured out how to set up notifications but hopefully I figure that out it would help me better predict my migraines

### 3/5 — Aufzeichnen

*2025-11-16*

Hintergrund-Aufzeichnung funktioniert nicht, obwohl alle Zugriffe erlaubt werden.

### 2/5 — zeigt GPS-Höhe

*2025-09-13*

nützt mir nichts in der Schlucht

### 1/5 — 全画面の動画広告

*2026-06-10*

使い始めて1分で2度も挟まってきた全画面閲覧強制動画広告。
Very frequent full-screen un-skippable Video Ad.
Worst experience ever had.
Useless.

### 1/5 — Eigentlich gut

*2026-02-28*

Der Entwickler antwortet aber leider nicht auf Mails. Das ist schlecht für ihn, denn dann kaufe ich die InApps bzw. die Vollversion eben nicht. Sein Pech.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-12-27, version 3.7.6*

Flat out doesn’t read even close.
Went from 11 to 29 in a couple hours with no change in our weather or our weather ap

### 1/5 — Instantly Too Many Ads

*2025-12-06, version 3.7.6*

As soon as I loaded the app, ads were  instantly playing with no opportunity ever to close them. It required closing the app and reopening to eliminate the advertisements.  It is deceiving to give an app without a fair opportunity to actually use it as advertisement for games (that I have no interest in) constantly pop up.

### 1/5 — Too many adds to even try

*2025-11-27, version 3.7.6*

I downloaded this app to try before I buy and it’s unusable as it goes straight to adds instead of barometer. Will take my money elsewhere.

### 1/5 — Плохо работает

*2025-10-09*

Стоит на одном месте!

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-10-01, version 3.7.6*

All advertisements

### 1/5 — Worked pretty good but now crashes and now forced ads

*2025-09-08, version 3.7.5*

Application worked real good and stored data. Only if you kept the application running. Application now crashes when you open it on iPhone.

I removed and reinstalled the app and now I get forced advertisements like when I leave settings. This app has gone down in a bad way.

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas

*2025-08-31*

Mise à jour de mon avis.
Cette appli ne fonctionne plus. J’ai beau la supprimer et la charger à nouveau, essayer différents paramètres. Les aiguilles restent au neutre. J’ai pourtant pris la version payante. Toujours aucun mode d’emploi. 
Suppression définitive


Cette appli semble plutôt précise. Interface en français appréciée. 

Mais l’utilisateur est laissé à l’abandon pour la compréhension des réglages. Aucune explication. 

De plus le choix des couleurs est une bonne idée mais pourquoi ne laisser que des couleurs sombres ? Même le « blanc » est en fait gris sale. 

Il ne manque que quelques efforts pour les 5 étoiles.

### 1/5 — Ads Ads and more Ads.

*2025-08-24, version 3.7.5*

So many ads you will learn to hate this app.

### 5/5 — Works brilliantly

*2026-08-04, version 3.7.6*

Fab app, cheap to go add free too. Great for knowing when a drop or rise in pressure might trigger a migraine.

### 5/5 — Best barometer

*2026-05-23, version 3.7.6*

This barometer is pretty accurate and useful when you want to know what the actual weather conditions are like and if it’s good to take the boat out onto the bay!

### 5/5 — New User

*2026-03-02, version 3.7.6*

I have only had the app for a few days and I am kind of impressed. I am trying to tie the relationship of barometric pressure to some medical issues. I find that the dial is easy to read and I get informative notifications when there will be changes. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Работает как надо

*2026-02-24*

Лучший

### 5/5 — Absolut brauchbar

*2026-02-16*

Schöne graphische Darstellung, weist auf Wetteränderung hin.

### 5/5 — All good

*2026-02-03, version 3.7.6*

Great app , does the job.

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-12-21, version 3.7.6*

Works well and follows my ancient aneroid barometer +-.3 hpa. Alerts for “falling glass” useful as well. I like the app.

### 5/5 — Muito bom

*2025-11-19*

Gostaria de saber se a compra é vitalícia ou assinatura mensal

### 5/5 — Ok

*2025-06-07, version 3.7.5*

Ok

### 5/5 — IPhone

*2025-05-21*

Nice barometer this app but I don’t have it my iPhone. Just iPad and computer too.  I just want you know about it.
