Review summary

DS Barometer & Altimeter is praised for accurate barometric data and its easy, lightweight interface. Users value the history/logs and clear barometer graphs for spotting trends, along with alert options for high/low pressure. The app is affordable and offers an ad-free option. Common drawbacks include occasional chart/graph update problems, elevation readings that can be significantly off, and accuracy that can depend on location data. Some users also note purchases/permissions requirements. Overall, it's reliable for routine monitoring and aviation use when data is current and location is available, but issues with updates and elevation accuracy deserve attention.

Pros

Accurate and dependable barometric data (valued by pilots).
Simple, easy-to-use interface with useful logs/history for tracking trends.
Barometer history/graphs provide clear trend visualization and alerts.
Alarm/alerts for high and low pressure.
Lightweight and affordable (low resource usage with ad-free option).

Cons

Graph/chart data occasionally fails to update in the background or isn't refreshed consistently.
Elevation readings can be significantly inaccurate (off by thousands of feet).
Accuracy can depend on location data and may be wrong if location data is unavailable.
Some reviews mention purchases/permissions requirements.

2026-02-15	Me*****	I've used this app for years and it's been a really good help in preparing for migraines. Suddenly, though, the graph has stopped working in the background. It only logs when I open the app. I need to know trends (to see it falling). I have location enabled, my phone is on, I'm running Android 14 (API 34), I have signal... Any ideas?

2025-08-11	Al*****	Needs location just like other apps! Can be very innacurate if data is not available for current location. There are more accurate apps with smaller score.

2025-07-24	Bo*****	Very good, simple & easy to use, precise = compared to local weather data & stations, has logs, uses Very few resources, also not very intrusive commercials (depends on your selection of privacy settings) And also Very cheap to buy. Will try their other apps. thanks 👍
