Barograph: Barometer&Altimeter Reviews

by Alamocreek

Awful. Don't waste your time. No way to adjust graph axes to get sensible results. Reports way more digits than consistent with iPhone sensor errors so you mostly see hash

I've been looking for a decent this app app that displays trending barometric pressure across several hours and has adjustable axes. Can't seem to find it. Barograph displays air pressure to 1/100 of an inch of Hg. What?? It makes no sense to plot an implied accuracy greater than the measurement error of the barometer itself. I wish developers would get a sense of what changes in air pressure are typically observed over the course of repeated measurements and what that implies for changes in weather. In other words-- get educated before developing Barograph . Barograph is useless.

Barograph seemed great until I noticed a message saying whatever was on my clipboard was automatically pasted into Barograph each time I opened it. Considering this could potentially be a password, this poses a security risk.

This is really unfortunate, as it was exactly what I was looking for in a barometer app aside from this issue!

Though it says it does Barograph doesn't actually show history.

Forget Barograph. Full of bugs, doesn't work as stated, and after adding adds, that is about all it is good for. Tried to send app e-mail to them and that is full of bugs also.

I bought Barograph but it doesn’t seem to recognize it. I’m still getting ads and it’s still asking me to purchase Barograph to make the ads stop.

No this app apps seem to work ing background, but this one claims it does. Nope.

⋅ Doesn't actually collect data in the background, verified settings were correct
⋅ Erases history when changing display units

The realtime sensor graph is pretty neat but no way to calibrate the pressure to read your local pressure so if that was added that would be nice as 980 mb is not very accurate for anyone

I work for an airline and used Barograph to troubleshoot a pressurization issue. I loved the real-time graphing capability, but was disappointed in the :20 minute recording time. I lost valuable data.

A feature on a competing app is the ability to output data as a .csv file. That. Would. Be Awesome!

All in all, it's not bad, but it could be more robust,

Thanks for your work on this. I see this as a work in process and for free, it's great for watching a trend. I'm hopeful to see refinements and updates in the future. This is a great tool for a cruising sailor.

Extremely accurate and can measure very small differences as advertised. Keep up the good work!

I like this app because it lets me use the barometer and altimeter in my iPhone to measure atmospheric changes instantly. I just wish my tablet had this.

Works great on my iPhone 6, love this thing! And super sensitive, it easily reads the pressure difference from my head to my feet! Really fun to play with!

I don't write many reviews, but I feel I need to for an app like this. This simple app uses the pressure sensor in the iPhone 6/6+ to display real time pressure. It appears to be seriously accurate. The biggest point about Barograph is that the developer has updated it constantly adding features and cleaning up the appearance. I really like apps with dedicated developers like this. Keep up the good work

When storms approach the pressure drops and with Barograph you can see it happening in realtime, or you can archive several weeks of data. The internal barometer is so sensitive it sees the pressure change just from walking upstairs, or even a wind gust hitting your house. Climb a hill and track the altitude change, or watch the cabin pressure change when you fly on an airline. Highly recommended as a teaching tool for your kids or just learning basic high school physics.

The latest iPhones contain an internal barometer that is incredibly sensitive--it has to be to detect very minor changes in positioning like sitting vs standing, in order to accurately generate all the fitness data.

This neat app unlocks that feature and displays the high-precision data in an intuitive, real-time plot. This is especially useful for weather geeks. You can even adjust the units to suit your fancy.

I love the new improvements to the graph; they make it much more useful in conveying the data. The sharing feature also allows me to email the graph and the underlying data in .csv format to import into a spreadsheet and do whatever I want with it. Finally, the notification and widget features really make this such a handy app.

I love Barograph. It helps me plan my day. I bought the premium version. It runs in the background and gives me alerts. Couldn't ask for more.

Great simple app to see barometer and altitude. Great work my friend.

Works well.. fascinating data!
