Comments on Compass for Android

★★★★★ AL Gambotto · Dec 22, 2022

Much better than most compass apps. Does more than just shows n.e. s.w.

★★★★★ Cynthia Cormier · Sep 9, 2021

Right off bat I need to go East I did a few truns, and I was facing East. Thanks

★★★★★ Heather Cottner · May 19, 2023

Excellent compass! Very easy & easy enough to calibrate. My suggestion for easier calibration is to get a selfie pop button & instead of the figure 8, just spin the phone using the pop button. Super easy & works a lot better than the fig 8.

★★★★★ David Wright · Apr 2, 2021

I have downloaded several compass apps and this is the first one to indicate North. Some didn't indicate at all and several were 90 degrees out. Not very helpful!!

★★★★★ Lisa Skort · Oct 30, 2021

Easy Peasy. Just lay flat for accuracy, like a real compass. But also can do altitude.

★☆☆☆☆ Aylin Tamasheva · Jul 7, 2021

Sorry not happy with it. It is not accurate
