I’ve got an app from the book that isn’t allowed to be mentioned here, which has a G Force meter. That has really helped with take off, knowing I can quickly glance at that and see the plane is in the safe range.

https://apps.apple.com/it/app/peak-altimetro-gps-barometro/id6477742031 I’m passionate about hiking and this is the altimeter I always rely on with my iPhone — it’s by far the best I’ve tried. It even includes a companion app for Apple Watch and delivers very precise altitude readings.

I bought a Viso II digital altimeter used shortly after getting licensed, saved a bit of money that way and it's been extremely reliable. There are ones with bigger displays and easier to navigate menus, but in terms of core functionality it works very well. For audibles, the VOG is the best in...

I use this app and Torque Pro to get dials like those. Altimeter comes from the phone's GPS and Inclinometer uses the phone's gyroscope, and you can add any other value that your car exposes via OBD2
r/AndroidAuto
There's an excellent Android app called GPS Test Play Store, but it doesn't work on the car screen. As far as I know there's no AA apps with an altimeter.

Map my Ride app by Under Armour. Its built for biking but has a bunch of options for other activities, I use it for hiking all the time. Can't say how pinpoint accurate it is...

Honest question, what’s everyone’s fixation with using something other than a dedicated skydiving altimeter, as their altimeter? Just because I can find away to use my tamagotchi as an alti doesn’t mean it makes sense. ... I suppose, but the risk really doesn’t seem worth it. I’ve worked in the hard...
