# stopAbsoluteAltitudeUpdates()

Stops the delivery of absolute altitude data for this altimeter object.

## Declaration

```swift
func stopAbsoluteAltitudeUpdates()
```

## Discussion

Discussion Calling this method ends the delivery of absolute altitude events and releases the references to the operation queue and block that you specified in the startAbsoluteAltitudeUpdates(to:withHandler:) method. If you haven’t started delivering data, or if you’ve already called stopAbsoluteAltitudeUpdates(), this method does nothing. note: Absolute altitude is only available on iPhone 12 and later and Apple Watch 6 or SE and later.
