Comments on Digital Compass for Android

★★★★★ Mark Buckendorf · May 5, 2026

Great app. Great compass that is accurate, easy to use, easy to read and a must-have for every situation. Trust me, nobody wants to be lost. Learn to use a compass and remember that you have it on your phone.

★★★★★ Sharief Starke · Aug 10, 2026

I didn't realize it could be set to True North, and it had a Qibla finder after having been on my phone for so long. A really 5-star app. Ads yes, but not intrusive. Could you guys please make this app compatible for Samsung Watch!

★★★★★ Amrita Kumari · Jul 30, 2026

Magnetic needle quickly aligns along the North-South direction. So, very useful in determining the direction at any place. I have not checked its accuracy.

★☆☆☆☆ Jack Morin · May 3, 2026

Nowhere near accurate. It indicates East as being SSE.

★☆☆☆☆ True Believer · Sep 12, 2026

Does not work, it tells me that east is west and north is south.

★★☆☆☆ Chris Bough · Apr 19, 2026

Continual ads so annoying I rarely use the app.
