I really enjoy this app. Very accurate to use and easy to read. I used to be a member of the advanced scout party in the military (US). Kept a compass was given for the E.T.S. debrief, I ise the military compass to see how accurate this application is. it is very accurate.

After calibrated to my location the compass is working great! Compared to actual handheld compass' it hold the correct reading. Best one I have found so far. Along with upgrades and the designs available I would say check it out!
