## What is Azimut?

This app is a sort of a personal compass, that--instead of pointing to the north--points to locations that you can create and choose for yourself. It shows the direction to the selected target location as well as the distance.
It can be useful when hiking, biking or travelling (even without an internet connection), but it can also be a fun way to test your sense of direction :-)
