Latest reviews of Altimeter - Turn your phone into a GPS Altimeter app for iPhone and iPad
Useless without cell service (v1.0)
Beware! Even when built-in iPhone compass and map apps find a strong GPS signal, Altitute failed in the middle of Joshua Tree Park where there was no cell service. Works OK in the city, (but who cares there?) Also has a bug when refreshing the query- the new number displays in meters while the units continue to say feet if the last measurement happened to have been in feet. Disappointing.

Accuracy???
Great idea but isnt accurate....by any means. My actual lat and long are 35.4degreesN and 82 degrees W. App says 41 N and 73 W. Not even close. My actual altitude is approx. 2300 feet.....this app consistantly puts me at 337 feet. WAY OFF. How do I get my money back????

simple and accurate
Simple, easy to use, fast and accurate. If you guys can add different themes for example that would be a very nice touch. Thanks
