Tire Pressure Correction

Seasonal temperature change can dramatically alter tire pressure. The purpose of this utility is to provide a procedure/guideline to adjust tire pressure correctly when tire temperature is something other than the ideal "cold" state and in the real world of driving while in changing weather conditions.

Very Useful

Having rediscovered this app on my phone, I find it very useful. Yes, it has some settings limits but it works fine with the tires on me car. If you have a vehicle with high pressure tires you won’t find this helpful. I check my tires at least once-a-week or with large weather changes. By keeping my tires properly inflated I get more tire life than the tire mileage ratings. An update for higher pressures would help more drivers.


Great info!

I know having correct tire pressue is important for tire wear and fuel economy. This makes it so easy to make sure you set it correctly. Thanks!

This app is quite handy. I use it at work everyday. In my job I service police cruisers. Each morning when I begin my day I take a look at my weather app and check for the lowest/highest temps for the week. Then set the pressure based on the temps and if the unit has been driven or not. Now when the cars come in I am finding that those tires that have been set previously are pretty close to spot on for pressure. Very handy.


Low Range
Dissatified with Purchase

Useless for large size tires on RVs. Need to have ranges up to 140 pounds.


No other app does this.

This app attempts to help you compensate for variations in temperature when inflating your tires. The app default to 2 psi above factory recommendations in most cases. I have felt marked improvements with cold weather performance with my suv and my motorcycle. I would recommend using this quarterly to compensate for seasonal temperatures. The only drawback is the factory threshold is a maximum of 40 psi. I would like to see this broadened up to 80 psi for customers with light truck tires with e-ratings. Some of the help popups don't work or if they do the text is not justified properly and the text appears off the screen.


Not well designed
Last time buying a Mercedes

In my case the tire pressure recommended is 43psi cold, the App only goes up to 40psi Max, and that's on my car, my Chevy suburban rear pressure is 80psi, can't use the App....
