### 2/5 — Calibration doesn’t work

*2025-12-15, version 2.15*

Never provides accurate north

### 4/5 — Compass

*2025-06-09, version 2.15*

Have enjoyed this app for quite some time. It always works. Finally deleted though as ads would cover half the screen.

### 3/5 — 나침반

*2024-08-15*

뭔가 좀 이상해요. 북쪽이데 동쪽으로 표시대요.

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2024-03-30, version 2.15*

The ads cover much of the compass. There must be a better alternative.

### 4/5 — Manchmal verzögert

*2023-12-21*

Die Himmelsrichtungen werden manchmal-trotz Kalibrierung- ungenau bzw. verzögert angezeigt.

### 3/5 — Little confused

*2023-12-10, version 2.14*

Simple and clear not sure of accuracy yet but directions and description of of setting would be helpful

### 1/5 — Trop de pub

*2023-09-03*

Version gratuite tellement envahie de pub qu’elle est inutilisable et perd tout son intérêt !
D’autres boussoles gratuites n’ont pas de pub et offrent exactement le même service

### 1/5 — Aha

*2023-08-23*

Habe gerade schon mal eine Bewertung geschrieben und jetzt ist mir aufgefallen dass die ganzen guten Bewertungen von vor 3 und mehr Jahren kommen. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Diese App ist die schlechteste die ich je kenne 

(Verdient eigentlich gar keinen Stern⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)

### 1/5 — Mr Onlywantdirection

*2023-07-04, version 2.14*

Just want to see directions. Half the screen taken up with irrelevant adds.
Will remove App and try another.

### 1/5 — Popups bad

*2023-06-03, version 2.14*

This used to be a great app, but the pop-ups have made it totally worthless. Uninstalled, one star review left.

### 1/5 — Заблуждение

*2025-05-27*

Вместо севера юг показывает, с таким компасом Сусанина не надо

### 1/5 — Boussole pour iPhone

*2025-05-01*

Pourquoi l’indication boussole me désigne le Nord qui en réalité est le sud ?

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2025-02-23, version 2.15*

Useless.

### 1/5 — Лажа

*2024-12-19*

Врет на 180 градусов; вместо юга север показывает

### 1/5 — Bad choice

*2024-09-02, version 2.15*

Many other compasses work 100 % better this is showing me due north is at 120 degrees! Garbage

### 1/5 — Sehr unpräzise

*2024-07-10*

Taugt nichts

### 1/5 — Large Google Ads

*2024-07-01, version 2.15*

The ads cover a significant portion of the bottom even after they are closed.

### 1/5 — Adds!!!!!

*2023-11-29, version 2.14*

As above

### 1/5 — Compass not accurate

*2023-11-06, version 2.14*

I am in Mexico and the compass is showing North, but it actually pointing to the south.

### 1/5 — Nicht zu gebrauchen

*2023-10-18*

Zeigt die Himmelsrichtungen immer anders an.

### 5/5 — I’m confused

*2026-01-07*

There are ads in this app? I’ve had it for a year and I’ve NEVER seen ads! I never paid for it and it’s giving me the ad-free version? Either it’s a bug, or just a marketing error.

*2024-04-15*

Super boussole

### 5/5 — Sehr schön

*2024-04-12*

Klein aber fein. Mehr braucht ein Kompass nicht. Wenn die Kalibrierung jetzt noch gut funktioniert, ist alles perfekt.
Sehr schön.
