Barograph uses the barometer built into your iPhone to draw realtime charts of the atmospheric pressure. It lets you view pressure trends, set alarms, and get alerts when the pressure changes. It also lets you log and export data to CSV format.
Discover the ultimate tool for tracking atmospheric pressure with Barograph, the original barometer data logger app designed specifically for iPhone and iPad. Whether you’re a weather enthusiast, an outdoor adventurer, or simply curious about atmospheric changes, Barograph offers powerful features to measure and analyze air pressure in real-time.
Key Features:
•Real-Time Atmospheric Pressure Monitoring: Instantly measure atmospheric pressure and watch dynamic graphs showing pressure changes over time.
•Pressure alarms: Set an alarm and get notified when pressure rises above or below the desired value.
•Background Data Logging: Use “Background App Refresh” to continuously collect barometric pressure data, even when the app is not actively in use.
•Sea Level Adjusted Pressure: If you prefer to view calculated sea-level adjusted pressure instead of measured pressure, you can enable this feature with an optional in-app purchase. Adjusted pressure is calculated using your iPhone’s barometer and local weather data via Weatherkit.
•Altitude Display: View your relative altitude based on barometer readings, perfect for tracking elevation changes during hikes or flights.
•Push Notifications: Stay informed with periodic notifications that provide atmospheric pressure values, alarms, and trends, ensuring you’re always aware of significant changes.
•Data Export: Easily share your barometer data in CSV format for further analysis or to share with friends and colleagues.
Use Cases:
•Weather Prediction: Track weather systems and anticipate changes. A dropping pressure generally indicates rain is approaching.
•Elevation Tracking: Observe how atmospheric pressure changes with elevation, ideal for hikers, pilots, and outdoor enthusiasts.
•Scientific Research: Gather detailed barometric pressure data for educational or research purposes, with seamless data export for comprehensive analysis.
•Many people use atmospheric pressure data as an indicator of when they may have a migraine headache.

Hi there, and congrats on the major rewrite!In the most recent update (version 2.7 build 3), the app doesn’t work at all without access to motion & fitness settings, which I don’t enable for privacy reasons. Would it be possible to add a setting option that would disable whatever new functionality requires access to motion&fitness? The app worked well enough for my purposes without it. Thanks.
Developer Response
Unfortunately, Apple no longer allows access to the barometer with motion and fitness turned off. It’s a requirement in the latest version of iOS so any future versions of Barograph going forward need to request this permission. ;(I think the reason is the intended use of the barometer is to track elevation on hikes and Apple doesn’t really consider the weather use case. The Barometer is actually part of the “CoreMotion” library.I promise you that I don’t collect any information related to motion and fitness. I only request the permission to collect Barometer data. And unless you use the sea level feature, I won’t request location permissions.Please email me if you want to discuss it in more detail.

Vital tool!

First, I’m not the traditional user of this app. I’ve been using it to track the the pressure and changes throughout the day and week and how it effects my migraines. This has been a simple and vital tool in helping to prepare as well as give “reason” to why symptoms of migraine randomly start to crop up. “Oh look! The pressure has changed dramatically! No wonder I feel awful!”Along with this I’ve been able to see the elevation difference between home, work, in-laws (never pressure there 🤪), and vacation locations. My only wish would be a way to zoom in on the table to see the data. My chart is rather large since I don’t refresh or close the app.
Developer Response
Glad to know you find the app useful! The way I was using it I would just reset it from time totem but I see that does not work for everybody. I was thinking about maybe adding a "1 day" zoom view of the chart as an option of people looking interesting in looking more recent data/trends. would that be useful?
The OG barometer

I find it amazing that they’re still working on this app after so many years. I first tried it back in 2013 or 2014. It’s great to see a modern user interface and the new style of home screen which they recently added. The best thing about this app is it measures the pressure in the background. I don’t get data every minute of the day, but I get enough data points during the day that I always have an idea of the pressure trend and I can spot storms before they hit.
Developer Response
Thank you so much for the review! We have indeed been around since 2014! I'm glad to hear that you're stuck with us all these years and I hope you continue to enjoy Barograph.
•Added a fixed offset option in settings. This will not affect the saved data, only the chart display.
•Added better error reporting when there's and data or Motion & Fitness is disabled.
•Improved the data storage system and optimized performance by downsampling when there's too much data on screen at once. This does not affect saved data - only the data displayed on screen. You can always export all raw data to CSV.
