Digital Compass

The compass did not stop moving while I was trying to use it. Don't know if I should have done something differently, but I was fairly certain it was giving me incorrect results, though it was still moving when I closed it. Update - I removed cover and did a few figure of eights following developer response. On running the app again it was no longer continuously moving,BUT it was definitely giving an incorrect reading.

An excellent basic compass. Note: you may need to calibrate the magnetic sensor in your Smartphone first. To do this just hold the Smartphone and move it through several vertical "figure-of-eight" movements with the Digital Compass app open. If you don't do this you may get inaccurate results. The app includes a 'spirit level' (the small dot in the middle of the dial) that allows you to move the Smartphone until it is exactly horizontal for best results.

Works as intended. Ads are the simple Google banner style ads and are non- intrusive, which is acceptable to me since this app is free. Switching between magnetic and true North, and magnetic strength reading are interesting from a geographic perspective. Although spirit level apps are separate on Android, if it was included here this app would beat the Apple one.

I love you Digital Compass 🧭 is the best app in the whole wide world. Do you know how great app it is. You don't need maps 😃. You can play with Compass. If you spin your phone the compass will spin too. There is no adds. You don't need a real Compass. Please install this app and tell to your friends. Put a 5 star review. Bye bye 👋.

Does what it says on the tin neatly. No excessive bloat, and subtle ads in the free version. Well worth the modest price for the pro upgrade.

Does not operate or point in the general direction of travel even tho it has been calibrated several times. Needs to work all the time in order for me to keep using it. Otherwise I'm deleting it. Not good. I'll find another compass to trust!

Simple and accurate, as close as a conventional marine compass as I've seen. With the phone in the horizontal or vertical position the readings are almost the same.

Really great seems to be extremely accurate. I don't understand the tell us more thing under here where your only choice is no or not sure . where it says Does the app description match the app experience? I want to say yes but it is not an option. And does it make you happy it's a compass I suppose if I found my way off Ben Nevis in a snow storm after losing all other navigation aids and didn't walk off a cliff maybe it would make me happy so yes it could make me happy.

Very Good. But little bit inaccurate. But the latitude and longitude are good. I found it in Google maps. Also map display is well.

Inaccurate Edit- Not using a case and I tried calibrating several times. Restarted phone and app and still had issues. It would point in a general North direction but as soon as I would turn the phone the needle would follow and would show north even when facing south.

to be honest, your app works great for hiking; however, if one were to rely on it an night in the rain while flying a T-38, much less a T-70 or newer... it is clear while playing around with this app for my 1st time using a digital compass, that if you were taking off vertically or flying upside-down, then you would really be flying blind because the former is a very unstable heading, and the latter N is S & S is N, so I have a feeling your app is accurate, I just need to upgrade my phone. 😉🚀

Just moved out into the country in Mississippi. This app comes in VERY handy til I get my bearings and become familiar with the area.

Easy to use but not consistent. There are cases when the same direction once shows as northeast and the second time shows as southwest ..

This app is great, as someone who can't remember where certain directions are, and someone who doesn't have a compass naturally as an app on my phone, this app is 10/10 for me. It is such a great compass, and doesn't require access to your entire phone. Great app, would highly recommend!

Most of the Google apps are versatile. I really like them. Google Is the master. Kudos to Google and Microsoft.

Gives precise reading accurate to few degrees same as analog compass. Any compass shall work only when metal or magnetic items are not placed nearby.

Compared it to an old style compass, exactly the same readings. My old time one did not give the magnetic strength, naturally.

Simple, easy to use, and accurate - since GPS and magnetic compass options are quickly switched.

Don't waste your internet data. This is the worst app I have used in my life. I have used it to determine the directions of a known place.It shows the directions wrongly . Now I am going to unstall it.

It is giving just opposit direction. I tried calibrate it many times, no change. It's not reliable.

Great compass app, super smooth no frills and nothing you don't need. Only thing keeping it from 5 stars is no widget, I'd love to see one.

I looooooooved this appk`s activeness and the way ads are entertained. I wanna thank the developer of this appk. THANK YOU.

Easy to use, accurate for my uses. I want to be looking in the right direction when I am star gazing. This does the trick. The writing in the settings is different from the average app. Nice touch.

Good app. I'm just wondering how do any digital compasses work? Considering there isn't a magnetic needle in my phone, or at least I hope so!😅

Simple and neat. Works as expected. Would be nice if there is a widget so that I can add it in the side panel for easy access.

Works pretty well. Tested in my house which is just a degree or two off of facing directly west, and it lines up pretty nicely. Wouldn't trust it for navigation in the outdoors but handy nonetheless

First time I installed this app it worked fine for 1 day. The day after the compass got confused. I did calibration but it didn't work. I have installed it again and calibrate about 10 times. Now it works fine with high accuracy.

A really great directional app. Easy to use. Evan an old man like me can operate the app. Thank you so much.

The digital compass is a very simple device to operate on any android smart phone.Just download the app. from playstore.
