Comments on Accurate Compass for Android

★★★★★ W Vitols · Sep 12, 2024

The compass is very good, however if you show the gps location coordinates then use a format which is easier to use NN.nnnnnnn The possibility to share these coordinates via blue tooth would also be useful.

★★★★★ Jim Shepherd · Jul 6, 2025

The Morse message feature needs variable speed setting and sensible message editing. The flash rate is way too slow to be useful to any Ham or Aldi Lamp operator. The message formatting should allow spaces, so a message can be properly composed. Spaces should be ignored by the LED. It should also allow pasting from the Clipboard, which currently doesn't work.

Accurate easy to use love it lots of great features. Use it all the time

★★★★★ Patrick Hilley · Oct 9, 2024

I am very pleased with this app - it matches the direction of my real compass, so I know it works.

★☆☆☆☆ Keith Pecoraro · Apr 12, 2026

Inaccurate. Can't tell if it's the app or my phone.

★☆☆☆☆ James Priester · May 4, 2026

Compass is way off. No way to calibrate. Unacceptible

★☆☆☆☆ Istvan Fekete · May 11, 2026

Useless. Utterly. Accuracy is shown as "bad" and it is a perfect description. No attempt is made to show how to improve compass accuracy. I recall it being a whole thing on phones I had before. Maybe not these days, which would require an entire separate rant, but that does not make the application useful in any sense.
