NO Support

LCPtex

Could be a good app but there is no support for the purchased version, and when it breaks it’s pretty worthless. Honestly, I would not recommend this.


Inaccurate

Larissa999

Altimeter is broken. Today it says my altitude is 45 meters, tomorrow is 35. And I didn’t even leave the place. Adjusted temperature, too.


Not being kept up to date

Bilgekeel

Loved this app from day one. Unfortunately it seems to have been abandoned by the creators. The “pro” option no longer works even after paying for it. Wish this was working in its entirety as it started as a great app.


Set

This is all new to me. What is the set option for?


Yes. Just: yes.

I bought this app not for the extra features but because I want to support developers who make good tools. The free version is better than what most paid apps claim to offer. Download and see for yourself. Some ideas for improvements: I’d like a widget that shows graphic changes. I use a barometer mostly to identify changes in weather that aren’t otherwise apparent (and when I cannot rely on the internet). Seeing a trend indicator for the last few hours without opening the app would be great. Also, alerts if the change is large enough. It would also be nice to have altitude as an alternative scale, so I can both gauge recent hiking and compare how my legs feel against the chart to detect atmospheric/weather changes while going up and down. Overall, great stuff. This is the sort of thing we used to pay $200 for in a watch.


Still won’t log consistent data points

TippiDee

I have been complaining about this for a year or so. On my iPad, I must be opening the app often, or as someone else said, I just see a straight line. It’s better on the iPhoneSE2020, but still a problem. Once in a while, I think it is fixed. I see lots of data points and a nice curve, but every time, it reverts back to the boxy lines within days. :( I don’t need to know either station pressure or sea level pressure right now. What I need are trends! And you can’t get accurate trends without enough data points, pure and simple. Is it better than nothing? Definitely. Could it be better? It sure seems so, because once in a while it is better! I am no programmer or app developer, but why does it become “fixed” now and then, only to revert back??? I am sticking with my 4-star rating because it still works, just not as well as I think it could/should. And I don’t know of anything better, which says something!


Display changed

Stock143

What happened to the 30 day trend display?the range is so wide that the trnd line is straight now, where before, I could see the days when there was a change in the pressure, which was the entire reason I used the app


Really happy with this app

Laureatesasis

I’ve tried a few different barometer apps and this one keeps a graph that will collect data its self and a widget. Thanks!


No Trend Available Anymore

Fan o' Fish

I have enjoyed this app for a couple of years to get a feel for what weather comes my way and it’s been helpful. That said, the tracking portion does not work now, it just shows long lines with no variations. I’d like to keep the app for its ease of use, but right now it just is taking up space. I have an iPhone 12 and all is updated. I’ll update again. Is this going to work again? Developer?


Nice Barometer but does not track without app open

vstorm5

One of the best ways to use a barometer is to look at the trend of pressure change. This is tracked in this app but only when you open the app can you set a data point that is graphed. Ideally this app should create a data point periodically and consistently all the time. I suppose there is some kind of IOS limitation preventing this from happening. Not as useful without that but otherwise nice interface.
