The instructions on how to calibrate your compass works perfect. It's amazing how it knows what Address I'm at, it even has my elevation of my location where ever I go. This app is a must have, I love it . Great job on all the other features also. It even has settings that you can tap on. It also has the info on you're longitude & latitude readings. I would definitely recommend it to a friend. Great job, thank you so much .

Very good compass. I love the Taskbar indicator. However, I wish there were more options for it, such as displaying the current direction in letters (N, NW, S eg.). Also an option which instead of having the pointer always pointing north, it points up for north, down for south, left for west, ect.. Depending on the facing direction (this is what I originally figured it did until my confusion was settled). Overall, very good app.

very impressed! I've tried numerous different compass apps and it seems to be nothing but pressure to get premium. Unless you do you get bombarded with ads. I put this compass to a actuall test off grid deep into the Bob marshall wilderness. I brought my own compass to just make sure but navigated back to my original Starting point. It was put to the test deep into the mountains of Montana. thank you for developing something that I could count on.
