Love this app it is accurate and more importantly gives instant back bearings, missing on other compass apps I have tried. Other features giving bearings and times are very useful, I don't praise an app unless it fulfills my criteria and this does that extremely well, I instantly purchased the full app. No regrets
I used to love this app but it hasn't been updated for over 5 years. I noticed dev did post a comment last August saying an update was on its way. Hopefully dev is well and still working on it. Will adjust rating after update.
After paying what they asked i go to settings and it says this app was built for a older version of android or some such thing I have a note 10 Verizon hasn't changed the OS in quit a while I'm not sure what to make of it i guess I'm out some cash
This is a truly amazing app. Just needs an updated version for newer phones is all especially with it being a paid for app.
Simply could not get an accurate reading on my HTC 10. Magnetic North as much as 170 degrees out at worst. Very disappointing.
Couldn't make it work, juat a compass page. No instructions, took a refund.
Back to 5 Stars. With most recent Android update, app is working perfectly again.
Disappointed that there is no way to force calibration, which is incorrect out of the box
it was accurate at the beginning first month after that not even close
This app works perfectly on my current device and several others before this one. The developer is also very good and answers to emails. I see some people complaining. It seems that your GPS hardware has issues and not this wonderful app.
Nice graphics, plus speed and options are topnotch. A must-have app for anybody who needs reliable directional guidance in any situation. My go-to recommendation for #1 Android compass app.
Works fine with all phones I've tried it with including Nougat-based CM14 ROMs. Only wish is Android Wear support.
Constantly displays message concerning magnetic interference on my Z1. Non magnetic case removed just to see if it was somehow responsible. Factory reset was also a waste of time. You may want to look elsewhere if you have an Sony Xperia.
Constantly giving magnetic interference msg even in open fields
Ask for a calibrate all the time. Unable to calibrate. Uninstalling.
Been using this app for three years and it's still the best!!
Nice app, easy to use. Even better now with update to v1.0.8
For serious navigation using the phone... none better.
This is by far the best compass on the market.
Perfect app happy to buy it
I love this app! How can I change GPS Accuracy to meters? Thank you!
Stylish, practical, and all I could wish for in a compass app. I especially like the sighting arrangement for taking a bearing, and with the premium version the ability to show GPS position and bearing on the same screen. The developer is responsive and helpful. On my Nexus 4 I've found the magnetic field sensor a bit flaky, to the point where I wouldn't trust any form of compass without a "sanity check" from GPS, a map or local knowledge, plus frequent "figure 8" calibration. But within that limitation, this is a really nice compass.
Nice features, if only it would point north. The free version works on my Galaxy Note, but this one doesn't work on my S4. The compass turns a bit as I rotate the phone, but it never aligns to north. Tried recalibrating it several times with a figure 8 pattern without success. I want my money back.
Fine on galaxy note but pointing S on LG g pro 2. Accurate in feet and no option to change to meter.
Do not purchase this compass app!! It is highly innacurate. I stood in the middle of a field and turned 90 deg. It told me East both directions and the deg only changed about 10 deg. Not accurate. Looks nice, but totally inaccurate.
I can't get this app to do anything. It just sits there at 0 and 180 no matter what I do. Refund!
Heplfull if u know what u do
This a great app but development seems to have stopped with a dialog warning for early versions of android. I had to get a refund. Developers other app (still be developed) are excellent. Maybe some of this apps features could make there way into it.
