Compass for iPad and iPhone

A minimalist compass focused on the direction the device faces.

Our take

Try it for a simple supplemental heading display.

The interface avoids a map or route-planning workflow.

Keep in mind: Heading depends on compatible sensors, calibration and surrounding interference; it is not a certified navigation instrument.

What you can do

  • Display the current facing direction
  • Use a minimal single-purpose compass interface

Good for

  • Users who only need an approximate heading on a compatible device.

Consider alternatives for

  • Users needing maps, routes, bearings history or guaranteed compass hardware on every iPad.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 15.0.
  • Heading depends on compatible sensors, calibration and surrounding interference; it is not a certified navigation instrument.
