Compass∞

Compass displays heading, altitude and optional location/weather information.

Our take

For a supplementary outdoor direction display

Large letters and flashlight support quick viewing.

Keep in mind: Requires a magnetometer and is affected by metal/magnets; do not rely on it alone for navigation safety.

What you can do

  • View heading/cardinal direction.
  • Display supported altitude/weather.
  • Use flashlight and eligible coordinate/voice tools.

Review sources & grouping details

These themes use the completed local review collection and Codex analysis: the latest accessible written reviews within one year, up to 500 per app. This is an accessible sample, not a guarantee of all reviews or a measure of all users.

The feed does not identify each review’s platform. Its date is an update timestamp and may reflect an edited review. Versions shown belong to individual reviews; reported limitations are not verified current-version behavior.

Codex grouped explicit opinions from the review text, with original-text evidence retained. Counts use distinct review IDs, independently of star rating. A review may appear in several topics. The three most-mentioned topics per side are shown first; where more are available, expand the list to see every topic supported by at least three reviews. Group summaries describe recurring aspects across the group; individual examples retain their own context and do not stand in for the whole group. 14 reviews were too general, unclear or off-topic to assign a specific theme. Example summaries are paraphrases; the labeled excerpts are original review text. Analysis updated Nov 6, 2026.
