Key Features
- Read live atmospheric pressure from a supported watch barometer in hPa/mbar, inHg, or mmHg
- See rising, falling, steady, or not-enough-data trend states and review local 24-hour, 7-day, or 30-day history
- Calibrate against a trusted pressure reference and export retained pressure history as CSV when you choose
- View approximate pressure-derived altitude with current-as-zero or known-reference calibration
- Run foreground-only vertical-speed sessions with current, 5-second, and 30-second rates, relative altitude, ascent/descent totals, extrema, duration, and a compact graph
- Enable optional informational pressure-change alerts based on locally recorded foreground history with configurable threshold, window, direction, and cooldown
- Use cached pressure, trend, mini-graph, or estimated-altitude layouts from the Wear OS Tile
- Use supported SHORT_TEXT, LONG_TEXT, and RANGED_VALUE watch-face complications for cached pressure and related context
- No phone companion, account, location, internet access, ads, analytics, developer backend, or cloud sync
- Tile and complication surfaces use cached readings and do not start continuous background sensor monitoring
- Requires a watch with a built-in barometer; readings, alerts, estimated altitude, and vertical speed are approximate and not safety-critical or certified measurements
Frequently Asked Questions
Does BaroGuard require a phone or internet connection?
No. BaroGuard is a standalone Wear OS utility and does not use internet access for its pressure features.
Does BaroGuard work on every Wear OS watch?
A built-in barometric pressure sensor is required for readings. Watches without a barometer are handled with an unsupported-hardware state.
Do the Tile and complications continuously run the pressure sensor?
No. They display cached local readings and open BaroGuard when you want a fresh measurement.
Are the pressure alerts weather or storm warnings?
No. Alerts describe measured pressure changes from local foreground history. They are not weather forecasts, storm warnings, emergency alerts, or medical notifications.
Is the altitude or vertical speed exact?
No. Both are approximate pressure-derived references and can be affected by weather pressure, calibration, watch hardware, sensor behavior, and environmental conditions.
