Description
IpSmartAltimeter is SmartWatch extension to display pressure sensor based altitude on your SmartWatch. To be able to use IpSmartAltimeter you need to have a phone with a pressure sensor. Phones with pressure sensors include Sony Active, Sony GO, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy Note or Galaxy S III. You also clearly need a SmartWatch.There are options to lock the display bright or dim or leave it in automatic mode. If you lock it your battery will drain fairly quickly. Just touch the icons.
Swipe up or down to switch from the altimeter screen to a time screen.
On start-up if the pressure has not been calibrated within 2 hours then GSP based calibration is attempted.
The GPS is started, if a good location if obtained within 2 minutes this location is used to check the altitude cache.
If there is an entry in the altitude cache it is used to calibrate the altimeter.
If no cached entry is used then an online lookup is attempted for the location.
The resulting altitude and location are added to the cache and used to calibrate the altitude.
You can swipe left and right for the manual calibration screen and the settings screen.
Press to toggle filtering on and off and units from as meters or feet in the settings screen.
In the manual calibration screen swipe up to delete the last digit, swipe down for zero.
If the value is red then there is not currently a good location and the calibration will not be added to the cache.
If the value is green the location and manual altitude will be added to the cache.
Swipe right or left to set the altitude and exit the calibration screen.
I currently consider this to be beta.
Any problems please feel free to email support@iforpowell.com
I request the Internet permission for the crash reporting system I use and the analytics system as well as for doing the online altitude lookup. The analytics uses Flurry and is anonymous, I am just interested in how the app is being used in order to make improvements. There are options in the settings screen to switch off the crash reporting and the analytics if you want to.
I request the gps permission to look up the location in order to do automatic calibration. I stop looking up after two minutes if a good fix is not obtained.
I request access to external storage to save the calibration cache data.
I request the network state to help deciding if an online altitude lookup is possible.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
