See it in action

Twenty seconds: your current elevation, the highs you've saved, achievements as you climb, and a share card made on your iPhone.

Recorded on iPhone. Sample elevations shown.

Your current high

Open the app and see your current elevation above sea level, right now, wherever you are. Switch between feet and meters any time — the app keeps one setting everywhere, from the home screen to your history to the cards you share.

Honest about accuracy

Elevation is an estimate, and the app says so. When the signal is weak it tells you the reading is approximate instead of pretending to be exact.

Built on iPhone sensors

Location and barometric altitude are combined on device to keep the number steady as you climb, drive, or ride an elevator.

Track your highs

Personal High

The highest elevation you've reached, kept as your running record.

High History

A log of your saved highs with the date and a friendly place name.

No account needed

Everything stays on your iPhone. No sign-up, no profile, no cloud.

Nine collectible badges for the heights you actually reach — from your very first reading to the truly thin air.

Share your high

Turn any reading into a branded share card — your elevation, the place, and a little commentary on how high that really is.

Cards are drawn on your device and go nowhere until you pick a destination in the normal iOS share sheet.
