5 Best iPhone Barometer App
1. Barometer & Altimeter & Thermo
“Barometer and Altimeter is a simple application for measuring atmospheric pressure and altitude.
The application uses:
– built-in GPS,
– built-in pressure sensor / barometer (if the device does not have a barometric sensor, application retrieves atmospheric pressure data via the Internet from the nearest meteorological station),
– automatic altitude and atmospheric pressure calibration algorithm, based on data from local meteorological stations.
Barometer and Altimeter features:
– accurate height measurement above sea level (from GPS and other sensors),
– accurate measurement of barometric pressure (if the device is equipped in pressure sensor and check data available online)
– GPS coordinates, name of location, country
– information and current weather data from your local weather station (if available).
– outside temperature,
– wind speed,
– visibility,
– humidity, hygrometer (if device is equipped with appropriate sensors).
Exemplary uses of a barometer or altimeter tracker:
– health and medical – by monitoring the atmosferic pressure, you can be prepared for pressure jumps, headaches, migraine and malaise,
– for fishermen and anglers who fishing and sailing – monitoring the atmospheric pressure and weather you can increase the chances for good fishing,
– sportsmen and tourists,
– for determining, predicting and checking weather, air temperature, wind speed,
– to check the location,
– for pilots for check pressure and altitude,
– sailors, seamans and surfers can check the wind.
Using this barometer tracker is simpler than using an aneroid or mercury barometer. Our Barometer and Altimeter tracker is easy to use, simple and handy.
Warning! Some portable devices (tablets, phones, smartphones) do not have a built-in pressure sensor. On these devices, the measurements may be less accurate as they will be based on data from the local meteorological stations.
We are constantly developing this app, if you see something that can be improved send us on help@examobile.pl. If you like this app, rate it for 5 stars.
Enjoy and have a good time with this app!”
2. Barometer & Altimeter Pro
“This app uses the barometric pressure sensor built into all the newer iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch Models sold after 2016 with few exceptions. You need one of these newer devices to use this App. See below which older iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch without this sensor are not supported!
This App features a Barometer for weather, an Altimeter for outdoor activities, a barometric Trend and a Notification Center Widget.
Even without the optional In-App-Purchase this is a fully functional Barometer with absolutely no draw-backs and all important features accessible. Always without ads! (See “Pro Features” at the end). No internet connection required, no data transmitted – runs on your device only!
Keep an eye on the barometric pressure and be your own weather forecast! This little app uses only GPS (optional) and the new barometric pressure sensor to calculate the barometric pressure used in weather forecasts. The new iPhones have a barometric pressure sensor built in so this app works completely without internet. The handy marker helps you keep track of changes in the barometric pressure and let’s you predict weather changes! Please realize, that a single barometric pressure reading is not enough to tell the current weather situation but the barometric pressure and its change over time is a very good indicator for weather changes!
Now you can also see the trend in barometric pressure with graph charts displaying the measurements taken during the last 30 days! (6h, 12h, 24h, 3d, 7d, 14d, 30d)
The Altimeter helps you track your altitude changes based on the change of pressure. Just set your reference pressure and altitude in order to use the Altimeter for checking how high up the mountain you have climbed (works for other activities too). The App does not use GPS for the Altimeter.
Please Note that on older devices such as the 4S, 5, 5S and 5C as well as on any iPod Touch and iPad Models older than iPad Air 2 or iPad Mini 4 as well as the Apple Watch 1 and 2, this app will not be able to read barometric pressure values and not display any useful information. The first generation 4-inch iPhone SE is not supported – the new SE (2020) is!
All basic features, the Barometer, the Altimeter, the Trend and the Widget are completely free to use for everyone and are fully functional at maximum accuracy available. No ads!
The only features with restricted access via In-App-Purchase are listed at the end under “Pro Features”. Those are nice to have features for power users or those that want to show their support for the App!

Pro Features (one time In-App Purchase required)
– Change the Barometer Face
– Fishing Barometer

3. Barometer Plus
“Barometer Plus app measures air pressure and altitude using the built-in barometric pressure sensor on your device.
It only works on devices that contain a barometer, such as iPhone 6/6s/7/8/X (including Plus models), iPad Mini 4/Air 2/Pro or later.
Barometer Plus can be used for virtually all your outdoor and indoor activities, such as climbing, trekking, hiking and even stair climbing.
Because air pressure changes normally indicate a weather change, you can also use this app to monitor and predict short term weather variations.
Features:
* Contains accurate barometer and altimeter
* Unit support for pressure (mb, inHg, kPa, atm, Torr, psi, hPa, mmHg), altitude (meter, feet)
* Calibrate the barometer using GPS altitude, GPS location and nearest airport information/METAR, or manually entered QNH
* Offset sensor output value
* Measure height (building/mountain/hiked/climbed) using relative altitude feature (check Settings)
* Personalization graphic in classic analog style
* Today widget (Pro feature)
* Pressure tracking and history graph (Require “Background App Refresh” or “GPS running in the background”).
* Notification about pressure change. Useful when you are in weather sensitive zone like desert, mountain, sea.
* Export history to CSV format and customize notification change value (Pro feature)
You can also customize your barometer/altimeter with:
– 7 different housing colors
– Black, white or blue disk background
– 4 different app backgrounds
– 3 different types of needle
– Dark or light Today widget theme
*** Network connections require the app to be running in the background, and you must open app at least once a week.
*** Weather icons: This only shows the air pressure trend; this is not a weather forecast function.
*** Note: You should take the phone/tablet far away from computers, cables and other magnetic sources in order to get accurate results.
*** If you like this app then please support us – you can remove ads and unlock pro features from the menu.
*** “Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.”

5. Simple Barometer
“WARNING: Only works on devices with a barometer (iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, and newer)
ACCURATE BAROMETRIC SENSOR
This app displays the current pressure as detected by the barometer sensor inside iPhone. This means no network connection is required. You can get the current pressure anywhere your iPhone can go!
TODAY WIDGET
View raw or adjusted pressure quickly using a Today Widget in Notification Center! This functionality requires an in-app purchase.
A CORNUCOPIA OF UNITS
Measure air pressure in a number of different units: inches mercury (inHg), kilopascals (kPa), millimeters of mercury (mmHg), atmospheres, hectopascals (hPa), or pounds per square inch (PSI). Measure altitude change in meters or feet.
SEA-LEVEL AIR PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
Use your GPS-determined altitude to estimate air pressure at sea level to compare with weather stations around the world! Uses super-accurate reference to find very accurate altitude based on GPS location. If no network connection is available, the altitude is obtained directly from your GPS.
APPROXIMATE ELEVATION CHANGE
Using changes in pressure, the app displays an approximate elevation change from a reset point that you control.
