## Review summary

User reviews show the app often fails to provide accurate altitude, frequently stuck at 0, and can become unusable after updates or purchases. Compass functionality also tends to fail, and some features require additional payments. Intrusive advertisements disrupt use, including pornographic and frequent pop-ups. While the app can be a useful, free tool when working—especially for travelers needing altitude data—the dominant feedback centers on reliability, accuracy, and advertising overhead.

### Pros

- Provides altitude/elevation data when the app is functioning (does what it’s intended to do).
- Helpful for travelers, offering elevation readings across varied locations (e.g., coastlines, mountains, Kenya).
- Free to use, which reviewers find acceptable when it works.
- Positive experiences when the app functions, with users noting usefulness for simple altitude checks.

### Cons

- Altimeter readings frequently show 0 or are otherwise inaccurate, making the data unreliable.
- Reliability issues after updates or purchases; some users report the app stops working or resets.
- Compass frequently fails or remains frozen, sometimes requiring extra payments to unlock features.
- Intrusive ads, including graphic porn ads and frequent pop-ups.
- Overall data accuracy/inconsistency across devices and locations.
