Comments on Compass for Android

★★★★★ peleg tuchman · Mar 12, 2026

How refreshing, a minimal app that does exactly what you want and nothing else, with no ads. Thank you

★★★★★ Ahmadu Suleiman · May 17, 2026

Very simple and straight to the point compass application. There are zero ads and zero bloat features. I absolutely love it!

★★★★★ Michael · May 3, 2026

Simple and perfect. Includes the ability to adjust to true north. Thank you for providing this

★☆☆☆☆ Gtwo Ohtwooh (JMG) · Mar 28, 2025

Now, 90 degree error. No fix, no suggestions found. App functioned on day of installation.

★☆☆☆☆ Shreyansh Sen · Dec 15, 2025

It's pole direction is totally wrong. Worst digital 🧭

★☆☆☆☆ Tezzy Murphy · Jul 19, 2026

North is facing easterly which is strange as another compass app says it is East.

★☆☆☆☆ George Oppenheimer · Mar 21, 2025

Does not show the north (wrong by more than 90%, making it useless). I am using Galaxy S24 and compared it to a few others compass apps - all others show the north.
