Vehicle Clinometer App Reviews

Best one

This is one of the best ones Ive found. I just wish it wasnt so geared towards jeeps. Cool guys dont drive jeeps, they drive full size Chevys. Make one of the vehicle options a 1980s full size GM and this will be the best app ever!

Why

Im tired of everything revolving around one or two types of jeeps there are many different jeeps on the trails not just Jks and so forth so why not include the zjs and the xjs and so forth. Cool app but doesnt have my jeep in it

Vehicle Clinometer

The graphics on this tiltmeter app. bury all the others. Its just like the one on my old 4Runner except with all the modern GPS features. Very cool! Works perfectly. Great App!

Alert sounds are AWESOME!

Ive been waiting for an app like this for a long time. What sets this one apart from the rest are the audible alarms. You can specify pitch and roll limits for your particular vehicle on the setup screen. As you drive, when your vehicles attitude approaches your pre-set limit a you hear a warning tone. When you reach the limit, an alarm sounds. The alarm is great because at those times when you need to know the vehicles attitude most, youre usually too busy paying attention to the terrain and your driving to look at a gauge. The response time on the dials is adjustable, so theyre very smooth in their operation. The compass is a nice bonus! Thanks for a great app!

I have been waiting for this app

I had an idea for a stand alone device that does what this app does! You compare the price against the rad 1 rollover stand alone device and you save $130. I have some suggestions for features but this app works wonderfully. Even made a iPhone holder in honor of this app and boy am I happy!

Well worth it.

I love that I can specify the angle at which the alarms sound. That way I can take into account how much cargo Im carrying, whether or not the roof rack is loaded, etc. And its also great that the alarm is two staged, giving a warning before the rollover angle is reached. Very easy to understand and use. Very well implemented. Great app!

Great

Great app! I like to set the audible alerts a little low to give my passengers a little scare. One update I would like to see would be the ability to save your most extreme angle. Would definitely buy this again.

Now its perfect

This is a very useful app that also looks great. With the addition of the "disable auto lock" feature it now has, its phenominal!

Peace of Mind!

This app is great. I offroad in my Landrover on the weekends. As such I do not want alot of equipment in my SUV during the week. It is every bit as good as a permanent dash mount. I do not like to leave items on my dash as I do not want anyone to be tempted to "borrow" from me. Th added bonus of adjustable alarms also sets it apart from permanent meters. Again, the best app.

Very Very Cool App

I love this app! I always wanted to buy a clinometer for my TJ, but did not want to have one of those big bulky things on my dash. One minor suggestion, it would be cool if future versions allowed the app to run horizontal. Nice work!

Entertaining app.

The meters work perfectly and are customisable. Graphics are smooth, clean, and easy to read at a glance. This program does NOT have the option to turn off GPS to help save battery life. This program does NOT utilize the built in compass on the iPhone 3gs and is not nearly as good as it would be if it did. Both of these would be easy to implement into an update. Otherwise I love the app.

Bug found

Great app, except when forward/back warning angle reached the readings go crazy, losing angle accuracy. Smoothing is not an acceptable solution to this bug. Would also like to see a $.99 version for non-GPS devices.

Digital era

This aplication is the best my iPhone can ever have, there is so much technology behind just to enjoy this tool. My money worth it.

Not as Accurate as Id Hoped

I needed exteme precision in this application and I didnt find it. Other "level" apps exhibit must finer performance characteristics than are currently seen in this app. For example, tiltin the iPhone 1 or 3 degrees either forward or side to side sometimes doesnt result in a change to the readout. And that made it almost useless for my intended purposes. Now if that kind of precision isnt important to you, it seems like a fine app.

The pitch doesnt work

If the app worked then I would give it 5 stars. Its fine for just a couple bucks EXCEPT for that the pitch meter is broken. Only goes from 0-180. Thats dumb. I tried to delete and reinstall but that didnt work. Please fix this bug. Then everyone can buy it with piece of mind. (the roll meter works great but I want the whole app to work)

Great app but...

You cant change the tilt numbers. Im not sure but it might be because Im running ios4.

Clinometer awesome!

Love it! Audible alerts work great! Good zero function, compass matches hand held true! Gps is great! LIKE TO SEE: speed on main screen not only on pop up.

#1

I downloaded several of these apps. This one is definitely the best by far. Wish it had a TJ as a vehicle option but as long as it works who cares. Dont waste your time and $$$$ with the others.

Great App but could very easily be even better

This apps function is great. The only reason I didnt give the app 5 stars is the lack of vehicle choices. With the overwhelming amount of Jeep JKs, CJs TJs on the road it might be good idea to add these.

Very Nice!

This app is very well done. It is very configurable and has sweet graphics. I have been looking for this kind of thing for a while. Everything works as good as or better than advertised. Another reviewer claims there is a bug when the pitch is near vertical. There is a limitation that is well spelled out in the help telling you that the roll indicator will be unstable if the pitch is near vertical. This is ok with Me. Who operates straight up or straight down anyway? The smoothing works very well.
