How to Check the Temperature and Humidity on Your Android

This wikiHow teaches you how to find the current temperature and humidity level using your Android phone or tablet. If you're using one of the few Android models with a built-in temperature and humidity sensors, you can use an app like Barometer & Altimeter to display the levels of your exact location. Unfortunately, these sensors were only available in a few older Android models. The good news is that you can still get hyper-local temperature and humidity information using Barometer & Altimeter as well as in more mainstream apps like AccuWeather.

[Edit]Steps

[Edit]Using the Barometer & Altimeter App

  1. Install Barometer & Altimeter from the Google Play Store . Barometer and Altimeter is a free Android app that reports the temperature and humidity using your Android's built-in sensors.[1] If your Android does not have built-in sensors, the app uses your GPS to find the temperature and humidity based on a nearby weather station.

    • Most newer Androids do not have built-in ambient temperature and humidity sensors.[2] Some Androids that do have these sensors are the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, AGM X2, Galaxy S4, Motorola Moto X, and the Moto X 2nd Generation.
    • To download the app, open the Play Store, search for "Barometer & Altimeter," and then tap the search result that lists the developer as "EXA Tools." Tap Install to install.
  2. Open Barometer & Altimeter. If you're still in the Play Store, tap Open to launch the app once it's installed. If not, tap the blue-and-white icon that says "inHg" below a round meter.

[Edit]Using AccuWeather

  1. Install AccuWeather on your phone or tablet. AccuWeather is a free app that can provide you with extremely-local weather information, including the temperature and humidity level in your area. AccuWeather does not need to use any special sensors built-in to your Android, but you'll need to turn on location services to get accurate info.

    • There are many other free weather apps available for your Android, but AccuWeather is known for its ability to display up-to-date information based on your precise location.
  2. Open AccuWeather. If you're still in the App Store, tap Open to launch the app. Otherwise, and to open it later, tap the orange sun icon in your app list.

  5. Add your location(s). The first time you open AccuWeather, you'll see the Locations tab. If your Android's location services aren't enabled, tap the Location option to enable them now. You can also add additional locations to monitor if you'd like—just search for a location in the search bar (use a zip code for the most hyper-local results) and tap Favorite to add it to the list.

    • You can also view hourly temperature and humidity levels by tapping the Hourly tab and selecting a time.
    • To change your preferences, such as changing Fahrenheit to Celsius, tap the three horizontal lines at the top-left corner and select Settings. You'll also find the option to manage notifications here.

[Edit]Tips

  • If you want to keep tabs on the humidity and temperature in a specific room or area, your best bet is to purchase a Wi-Fi temperature and humidity sensor. You can place one of these sensors in a room, connect it to your Wi-Fi network, and install its companion Android app to check the levels when desired. Some popular options are the SensorPush Thermometer/Hygrometer and the Ideal Sciences Temp Stick.
  • Some smart home devices that connect to Android apps, especially those that regulate the temperature in your house, may be able to display the current humidity level in your home.
