## Description

Real Mercury Thermometer is a physics-based app that simulates a real mercury column to display accurate temperature readings. Compatible with devices both with and without an ambient temperature sensor, it automatically shows local temperature or outdoor temperatures worldwide.

Users can create a list of favorite locations and watch mercury levels rise or fall following real physical laws. Additionally, the app features a digital thermometer display, making it a practical tool for monitoring weather at home or abroad. Developed by DS Software, this extension blends scientific accuracy with global weather tracking convenience.

## Review summary

User reviews show a mix: several users praise the app's usability and accurate readings when GPS works, calling it nice, great, and Awesome. However, there are recurring issues with GPS connectivity and location-based readings—apps hang on searching, can't read, or show readings that don't match real temperatures (e.g., 18 C vs 5 C). A number of users report the app stopping or becoming unusable after days, indicating stability problems. Overall, the app has potential when it functions, but GPS reliability and temperature accuracy across locations are the main drawbacks.

### Pros

- Accurate temperature readings when GPS/location is functioning
- Positive user experience: nice/awesome/great usability
- Some users report reliable operation and daily usefulness

### Cons

- GPS/connectivity issues causing no readings or hangs (searching)
- Temperature readings are inconsistent or sometimes inaccurate (e.g., wrong Celsius values)
- App stability problems: stops working after days / becomes unusable
