Comments on Compass for Android

★★★★★ Rodnie NICHOLS · Jan 6, 2025

Easy to use and seems to be very accurate!

★★★★☆ First Last · May 2, 2025

I'm not interested in allowing location accuracy, yet every time I launch this app it wants me to enable location accuracy. No, I'd rather just uninstall.

★★★★★ Philip White · Apr 20, 2024

An excellent basic compass without a lot of clutter. Been using it for years, should have reviewed it long ago

★★★★★ Mike C · Jul 1, 2025

I enjoy being able to navigate not having to depend on a map. On some of my motorcycle adventures it is just fun to head off in some direction to explore for fun.

★☆☆☆☆ Steven Zusack · Dec 23, 2024

It's a good compass, but it's a tracking app that sells your info to anyone who will buy it. Read the privacy agreement. I appreciate that they do state it plainly. It's just not for me. I just wanted a compass.

★☆☆☆☆ natureadrift · Oct 19, 2024

Advertising spyware with over 100 venders tracking you

★★☆☆☆ boltgolt · Aug 8, 2024

Requires tracking ads (app used to be called" Compass free & no ads"). Downgrade to version 5.3.2 if you want to have the original intention of the app again

★☆☆☆☆ Nima · Sep 25, 2024

They make you agree to sell your data to 100s of companies, which if you opt out, you won't be able to use the app. What a scam
