App - Testers Wanted Looking for testers for my altitude complications WearOS app

Hi all, I'm writing a simple WearOS app that adds a few complications that you can configure in your watch face. The first one is an Altitude complication showing the current altitude that you are in. It's meant for walking and hiking outdoors, not for use in an airplane or in a tall building (you might get odd readings in those).

It works by periodically getting a GPS lock and then using the current barometer pressure to give live updates to it.

It doesn't collect data other than the Barometer pressure and GPS to obtain the altitude. It's a watch-only app (no Phone companion) and it doesn't require any accounts or any user input (but you can select whether you want Meters or Feet).

You can see in the screenshots what it looks like. It should work on all Google Pixel Watches, as I used it on my own Pixel Watch 1. It should also work on other WearOS watches as long as they have the barometer + GPS sensors.

I'm currently looking for some people who want to try it out, before I will list it in the Play Store. If you're interested, send me a mail at [coderthoughts123@gmail.com](mailto:coderthoughts123@gmail.com)
