About Altimeter - altitude and more
Have you reached the summit of a mountain and want to determine the altitude? Or are you on the way there and want to know how far it is? Altimeter shows you your current altitude. Also on your Apple Watch!
Or there are points on your route that you want to find again later? No problem, Altimeter allows you to save locations with name and icon to navigate back to them later. On your iPhone and your Apple Watch.
Altimeter is free and has no ads. If you like using Altimeter, you can support further development by making a donation.
If you have any questions or comments, you can send a support request within the app.
Features
- Height in meters or feet with accuracy
- Locations in multiple coordinate systems (International, Swiss, UTM, MGRS)
- Save locations and navigate to them
- Share location and altitude with friends
- System light/dark mode, colored or monochrome
- iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch
Altimeter uses the GPS chip to determine altitude. To save battery, the chip is only used when the app is displayed on your iPhone or Apple Watch. No background activity. Your position is not recorded.
Note
The accuracy depends on the reception of the GPS satellites. Reception is limited indoors.
Continuous use of the GPS can significantly shorten the battery life.
