analog device
A: A potentiometer is a manual device to change the resistance A thermistor changes as a function of environment temperature
When you convert digital signal to analog, it is called as an analog signal. The device used is called digital to analog converter.
DAC - Digital to Analog ConverterADC - Analog to Digital Converter
Step down transformer, potentiometer or rheostats can all be used to reduce voltage.

volt meter draws current from the device whose reading is to be taken and potentiometer does not draw current from the device so it is better to use potentiometer than voltmeter
A variable resistive device
In 1982 Atari released their first controller with a potentiometer-based analog stick for their Atari 5200 home console.
The volt drop across one mm of potentiometer is the sensitivity of the device. If it is calibrated in such a way that each mm of the potentiometer wire has a drop of 0.001 V then it is so sensitive.

The potentiometer is the device that is used in the measuring of the potential difference.
Neither is better or worse than the other. A potentiometer is an adjusting device usually for voltage while a voltmeter is a device for measuring the voltage. They are just two different things.
A potentiometer is a variable resistor, while a voltmeter is a device that measures voltage.
An antenna is analog it is not classified as being a digital device.
