First off ill say this app has worked awesome and been spot on so far,

But shooting this weekend I noticed it was off a lil bit and after looking I noticed that the altitude is way off ( several thousand feet) and humidity is not showing up on the main screen but only in the bullet profile for each particular bullet.

Everything is updating when I click update from station, just like its updating info from somewhere not even close to here.

Can someone help me fix whatever I/it did.
 
It has to do with your signal reception. Just one more reason why as shooters you need to log data and always work to move away from electronic crutches. Funny thing I notice....when you get to a location that allows for true LR and ELR type shooting its often in the most remote places (bad cell reception). When it comes to shooting distances of like 500yds and in...your data changes little day to day.

Not saying you can't use ballistic calculators....just be ready prepared when they leave you hanging. Also, if you shoot in teh same location as most casual shooters do...take a moment and figure out your altitude as it does not change. Humidity unless shooting really far has little effect on the overall solution.
or use it with a kestril :)
