Dear User, Compass could use the location data from your device to calculate the True (Geographic) North, which is different from the Magnetic North. Also, location data could be used to show you information like Elevation in feet/meters and your current address if you need it. Have fun using Compass!
Please Note: Your device should have a MAGNETIC SENSOR, otherwise the app will not work.

I have used it already bt is working nice for me even offline
★★☆☆☆
Mostly just points N at the bottom right of my screen no matter what direction I'm travelling. Always, ALWAYS, has East and West mixed up! Even when the compass seems to be working properly and the dial is showing the correct direction of travel, the reading at the top left of screen with degrees will show the opposite. I don't know what difference the Calibration and True North buttons are supposed to make, but they don't seem to do anything and there is no Help available when Help is selecte.
★★☆☆☆
Works badly with note 9. North arrow points 90 degrees west usually. But north arrow swings so jittery it's impossible to get a real and consistent reading. Digital numbers change so rapidly likewise can't get a reading
