True. Flagship smartphones, and some rugged models do have a pressure sensor.

When you remove the filter, it returns 12177 results. So only ~5% of phone models include a barometer.

It was not a bug. It was a feature request.

Ha! Looks like they were considering rebranding to Workapp. The canonical URL of make.com still points to workapp.dev

New comment by LukaszWiktor in "Some notes on using esbuild"

Google Sheets API is a nightmare compared to Airtable API.

There are external services like Sheetsu or Sheety to make Google Sheets API usable.
