Altimètre

Marche 1 fois sûr 10 et encore ....

bof

Cest franchement pas convaincant : trop de mal à trouver le signal GPS...

Accept its shortcomings and have fun

I love the lat/long and the overall look of the interface. The app seems to work well but it never remembers my preferred units (feet). I appreciate the accuracy indication. Sadly the results are never what you could call "accurate". More a toy than anything. But I like it.

Good Techy Device

Could give military accuracy?

Good but needs improvement

I chose this because it showed the Longitude and Latitude as well. The i button does absolutely nothing and that clicking noise while working is really annoying. Although it is a nice pretty app, there is a lot that can be done to improve it.

Very noisie

Can not trun off noisie clicking sound not accurate approx. 200 m shot a 1700 m

neat little app...

I take frequent motorcycle trips up into the mountains here in Northern California. I can check my elevation whereever I stop. It is very accurate and it also gives you the latitude and longitude of your location. Neat little no nonsense app! Thanks!

After turning phone off and then ok this app as so many others worked fine. I dont understand why this important step is missing from most apps and is probably the reason for many bad reviews.

Love this Appl

Since the modification to measure in feet and not meters we think this is great!

chief pilot

Just wont work. Usually just hunts around, but if it does finally lock on, the altitude is off by 500 to 2000 feet and the GPS position is all over the place as well. The font for the GPS position is tiny and hard to read, but thats academic, as the accuracy is worthless. Tried it in various places with the same results. Gave up and removed it from the phone.

Very nice!

I know the x -y at my house and this displayed it dead on.. Very nice thanks!

Could this be a bigger waste?

I had high hopes for this app, but it never worked. Even in known areas, it was always off by a minimum of 200 and as much as 700 ft. Turned off the phone, did all the normal things - still not functional. Waste of time.

Creator has worked very hard

I have been checking the results of this app very frequently and I am impressed with the creators effort to make it accurate as it was pretty messed up at first. Recently we were out in the middle of nowhere trying to take a shortcut back home. We were unable to successfully navigate through several roads because of snowfall. I remembered this app, took it out, measured our altitude and used our results to determine if we could make it through a pass several miles in on a road we wanted to take. The map we had was a general use road map not designed to give accurate topo information. This app made the map much more useful and saved us hours of driving. So cool!

SHOCKINGLY INACCURATE

I have over 120 apps on my iPhone and this is easily the biggest waste of money.

Not even close

Too inaccurate to be of any use to me. A few times, app wouldnt display altitude even though it was giving lat. and long. readout. Also, there should be a way to change the default measuring increments only once, i.e feet or meters, and have it stay that way each time app is opened.

Real nice for hiking.

I just climbed a Colorado 14er yesterday and downloaded this app to keep track of my altitude. It was off by less than 100 feet the whole time and kept up with my buddys $90 altimeter he just bought from REI. Plus, the whole time I had no cell service at all; it was strictly GPS. Pretty incredible if you ask me. Also, we were driving to a trail that our info gave us the longitude and latitude for, and this app nailed it. If youre using this in a hiking/outdoor setting this app is beyond worth the 99 cents.

It works but stop beeping

This app really does work, nicely. But please update a patch to turn off the irritating beep.

Great app, works well, accurate after a minute or so

Great little app. I have tested this against other altimeters and it does eventually zero in on the correct height. It takes about a minute or two to get there though. If that could be sped up a bit that would be nice and earn the extra star. Now if you can make a pedometer I could delet the aweful "dimensions" app

Beep is annoying

If the beep sound just went on once to indicate that it was now working, that would be one thing but it stays beeping the whole time the app is on. Too annoying. And no way to shut it off!!
