Features & Capabilities

Altimeter for Aviators is a pure pressure altimeter app designed primarily for Apple Watch, with compatibility on iPhone and iPad that have a barometer. It does not rely on GPS and can run standalone on supported devices, making it a valuable training tool for student and instructor pilots alike.

Use it to learn the concepts behind altitude measurement: set the pressure setting to sea-level pressure (QNH), zero (QFE) for a location, and view Flight Level using 1013.25 mb. The app offers unit options (mb/hPa vs inHg), a crown-driven interface, locking, color-coded altitude recency, and warnings about accuracy and weather-related drift; note it is not a substitute for real flight instruments.

Needs to cancel auto lock feature on phone to be useful

I purchased the 10 foot altitude increment to see if it gives any more resolution. It breaks the app. Don’t taste the $2.
