Altimeter stops responding after fast change

[eisengpferd]

Hello folks, I found a issue with the altimeter app. I used it while car driving in norway. If the change of the altitude is fast the app stopps responding after a few seconds. It was while driving down a 8% road...

And the altimeter-clockinfo has two issues: If the alt rises to 1000m it only showes 1km.
And if driving through a tunnel under the sea it should display negative readings, but the "-" is missing :-)

thanks /Hendrik/

Thanks! That's very strange indeed - did it start working by itself after a while? It's a hard one to test but I can't imagine it's a software bug - it may be a hardware issue in the barometer?

And yes, formatting the height is an issue - just for the ClockInfo, or for the app itself?

but the "-" is missing

Which clock are you using? This will depend on the clockface that outputs the clockinfo - I tried on Pebble++ and minus works fine

Hi Gordon,

• Yes the app is working fine. And after the road went steeper the app stopps responding and i can come out of it with long-press
• The app itself is showing negative values correctly.
• I tested with "LCD Clock +".
• Also no negative values with "LCD Clock"
• "Modern Clock" and "Circles Clock" are fine (with "-") (no more clocks installed at the moment, but yes, it depends on the clockface)

And I checked:

• adjusted the Altimeter to display 1050m
• all of my 4 installed clocks are showing "1km" in the clockinfo.
