Excellent app. Shows altitude by floating over other apps.

So far it works great on my phone, but I found it from a Google search for "android auto altitude" which included an AI hallucination that this app would provide its altitude overlay on the Android Auto display of Google Maps. Please consider adding Android Auto support!

Doesn't work most of the time. Only works, sometimes, after I manually open it and reset the settings. Im happy I actually paid money for a non-functional app., that the developers don't fix.

I really like the floating widget when using Google maps. But it doesn't always work. If I reboot my phone it works fine when I launch Google maps. But then later when I go to use Google maps again and the altimeter widget appears, it just shows zero for altitude. I have to reboot the phone to get it to work again. Not good for a paid app.
