Variometer-Plus (v. 2.5.9) Разработано wrapware |
Its a must have app for paraglider, hang glider, outdoor walkers, sailor ... .
Using speech instructions you can enjoy your course and listen simply to direction informations (like known from car navigation devices) or your climb/decline rate using beep tones just like a real variometer or view your track in real time. Additionally Google Earth is now supported (KML-File), to send (via email) and view your tracks offline on your home PC... .
The latest version supports (2.5.5) also the hydrostatic sensor (barometer), so the climb rate will be calculated based on ‘true’ air pressure like real variometer’s do.
This option will be additionally available, if your mobile
phone contain this particular sensor, otherwise Gps-based or phone acceleration sensor based calculation take place.
Feel free and enjoy your lifestyle.

[2012-06-02] Bill: Not very intuitive or accurate. Don't recommend for nexus s 2 users. |

[2012-04-23] Ben: The Baro based vario works well on Xperia Active Does what it is supposed to. I think all the bad reviews re the vario accuracy must be using GPS based... which is silly. On the Xperia active it works great. |

[2012-03-24] Marke: Does not work on any of my devices Great concept but useless Don't waste your money. |

[2011-07-10] Victor: It doesn’t work with the DefyMB525 - Android 2.1 The idea is good and viable. The system GPS has, in principle, precision and speed enough to be used in a variometer. Perhaps the GPS on Defy has no conditions to carry out the task. Perhaps the variometer-plus software has bugs. |

[2011-05-29] Árni: As good as it can be with the phones hardware. |
|
[2011-05-18] tamsa: Useless:(it just looks like vario,concept is interesting,but not more.sorry. |
|
[2010-09-24] Scott: Nice concept, however, neither the gps nor the phone's accelerometer are sensitive enough to make the variometer of any use. No beeps in 5 m/s lift. |

[2010-08-13] db-ware: Very nice app and less expensive as a real vario! |
