The barometric pressure alert on Home

When the air pressure where you are drops sharply from one day to the next, VertigoMe shows a Barometric pressure alert card near the top of the Home screen.

When it appears

The card appears when today's pressure is 10 hPa or more below yesterday's average. It shows the drop, for example "1012 hPa yesterday → 1000 hPa today", with a short note to keep hydrated and go easy on salt.

On a day without a big drop, the card is simply not there.

Why it is there

Some people with Meniere's disease or vestibular migraine notice more symptoms when the weather turns and pressure falls. The alert is a heads-up so you can plan a quieter day. It is not a prediction that a spin will happen.

What it needs

It is a card, not a push notification

The alert appears when you open the Home screen. It does not send a notification to your phone. Separately, the automatic Pressure low and Pressure high triggers can still feed your risk score.

Hiding it

Scroll to the bottom of Home, tap Customize home and switch off Pressure alert.
