Aircraft Compass
It uses your phones internal sensors and global positioning system to present you with an accurate magnetic heading or ground-track.
Features:
- Magnetic heading sourced via internal accelerometer, gyro and magnetometer sensors
- Ground-track sourced via internal GPS
- Functioning heading bug (just drag with your finger!)
- Filtered and smoothed display
- no jitter or jumping!
- Support for portrait and landscape screens
- Support for multiple screen resolutions
Usage:Aircraft Compass is very simple to use. Move the heading bug by touching it and sliding it around. You can switch between magnetic heading and GPS based groundtrack using the menu, as well as changing between portrait and landscape modes

don't waste your money, can't access menu.
Did not show proper direction.
The Aircraft Compass incorrect work at Google Nexus 9, but other applications from Sensorworks work well. Please, fix this problem...
Works well but heading bug is still not fixed
Didnt work waited 2 weeks for fix that didnt arrive. No chance of it ever working. Fed up waiting total waste of time and money
Exceedingly stable and great on the ground as well as in the air - now if it would give me a course to steer back home from the pub I'd give it 6 stars - just joking, its a great piece of kit
Love it, would like to see better heading setting options. Like just dragging the bug where you want it or entering in a number
Works great. Doesn't bounce all over.
A compass that works is an achievement; its a pity that the phone magnetometers don't match up to it. I have 5 different phones that display different headings in magnetic mode!!! Love the smooth action.
Uninstalled even the the paid version, couldn't get any of the features to work.
Doesn't work. Don't waste the buck
Never worked. Pile of poo
Accurate and heading bug is movable.
