Description

Compass works on the devices with compass/magnetic field sensors and without such. It can use "GPS Mode" to determine the moving car direction.

In "Compass Mode" the shown azimuth is between North and the device pointing direction. Device can be used in both flat and upright position, both horizontal and vertical orientation.

In "GPS Mode" it requires your device to be moving. Shown azimuth then is between North and the direction of your movement.

Comments on Car Compass Overlay for Android

★★★★★ Great idea. I would love to see optional eight more divisions in addition to existing all eight cardinal and intercardinal points, e.g. SSW. Another optional display I would love is true or magnetic heading digital readout, e.g. 210 (for 210 degrees heading). Also, an optional automatic change from compass mode to gps mode and vice versa based on user-selected ground speed threshold, e.g. 5mph, would be very appreciated.

★★★★★ Overlay works now, thank you!! Really useful for driving to have the dot indicating the direction I am driving *in relation to an imagined map where north is up*, especially when using the overlay. The other user review does not seem to understand this function. A useful improvement would be being able to choose the size of the overlay, but it works the way it is now :-)

★★☆☆☆ Girl crashes whenever it tries to go in overlay mode. And apparently this hasn't worked since July 2018, and you didn't even address it with another about a complaint from that date? Why are you still an Android developer, you take yourself seriously?

★★☆☆☆ Always showed north no matter what direction I was going.

★★☆☆☆ Landscape mode is not supported, points in wrong direction. Samsung Note 5, Android 7.0
