With nearly million iphone apps, I still can't find a simple audio vario
app, one which can be used as a backup if all else fails or when flying
gliders with mechanical varios. Non compensated and based only on GPS
altitude, but still better than nothing. Graphic display optional. Any
iphone app developers out there? Should be a simple app.

make it a pellet variometer display and i might just be tempted to get an
iphone

I really don't understand why popular flight computer display software don't do this. SeeYou Mobile and I assume everything else, knows when I'm circling and can even provide suggestions for thermal centering. Surely when it detects I am circling it could display the current climb rate in a pellet variometer display and once I level out it would switch back to moving map.. This would sort of be the perfect combination of vintage and modern instrumentation, all in one.
