what can I do with the barometer inside the Pixel phone?
(or any other phone... including my other Samsung phones)

I never gave it much thought until I was reading the specs.
(yes, I know... people usually read it before purchase, not
after owning the phone for a while)

The phone via certain apps can tell your elevation as well as how many flights of stairs you have climbed as with some health apps.

I have a watch that has a barometer in it that displays a graph that shows drops in barometric pressure so it can be used to show when it might rain or snow. It's also good for showing a hiker their general altitude when climbing up mountains.

That's what barometers are generally used for.
