About this app

The professional altimeter with automatic altitude detection that works even without an internet connection!
With the professional altimeter application you will be able to know the real altitude of the place where you are. It automatically shows the altitude through a complex algorithm that uses three detection methods together:
- Via satellite triangulation (functioning even without internet connection)
- Through the altitude on the map by taking the altitude of the land from your position
- Through the pressure sensor (if present) calibrated with the nearest weather station
Very accurate graphics proposes an analog altimeter (in meters or feet) with digital measurement.
Here are some features:
- Automatic altitude measurement (possibility of manual setting even with one of the three measurement methods [Map Altitude, Flight Altitude, GPS Altitude])
- History function with memorization of the route on the map and altitude difference graphs [also works when the app is closed] with indicators of speed, average speed, increase in altitude.
- Alert system to send your position in case of need by message or SMS
- Indication of weather forecast with trend, temperature and humidity measurement
- Photos with superimposed data, location and altitude
- Custom widget to insert in Home

With the Premium additional function you can:
- Turn off advertising
- Remove watermark from photos

Ratings and reviews

This altimeter assumes you are an altimeter savant. It tells you things in meters with no choice of options. It asks questions without a place to answer. It jumps right into sharing photos as if the mastery is already there, and I couldn't even get a reading. It launches without the participant. I couldn't spend time on it because it's for experts. It even told me that I could put in my altitude so I could calibrate... I do not know my altitude! That's why I wanted the app!

Battery drain. This app wants to access your location every few seconds. This excessive desire for location drains the battery at an unacceptable level and additionally doesn't seem to pick up where it left off. An incredibily inefficent app. It also doesn't accept GPS battery savings options installed on your phone - thinks the GPS is unavailable. Could be useful but it's been uninstalled. Only the addition of an option to adjust the time between pings would make me install this again.

Was Nice Until The Full-Screen Ads Hit. I like the app overall. It has a fairly easy to use and understand layout. The only thing that didn't seem to work correctly is the altimeter "reset" button. It would reset to zero and then a second or two later go right back to the previous altimeter reading, leaving you without a way to track the difference in change. I understand having the banner ads at the bottom of the screen but the full page ads along with their sounds are too much. Uninstalling.

What's new

- new graphs on the route (speed, average speed indicators, increase in altitude and percentage of activity performed)
- saving routes with all data (altitude trend, map positions, average speed data, altitude variation)
- added satellite histogram chart
- Bugfixes and optimizations android 14
