## What is Compass?

A simple compass that shows which way you are facing using your device magnetic sensor.

See your heading in degrees and the cardinal direction on a clear rotating dial. No sign-up and no location access — it works offline.

[Features]
- Large heading readout in degrees with 8-point cardinal direction (N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW)
- Smooth rotating compass dial
- Details view: heading, direction, magnetic field strength, and sensor status
- Interference warning when nearby metal or magnets affect the reading
- Calibration hint for steadier results
- Clean dark interface
- 9 languages: English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Spanish, French, German, Portuguese

[Privacy]
This compass uses only the device motion sensor. It does not use your location and collects no personal data.

[Notes]
The compass points to magnetic north. Readings can vary near metal, magnets, or electronics — move away from interference and rotate your device to recalibrate.
