*2025-11-07, version 4.0*

As we arrived at the dog show in an unfamiliar area, as part of the show giving club, we needed to park in a certain place. I was told by text to go to the South lot, I looked up compass apps & yours guided us exactly where we needed to be!
So easy, so readable ❣️

### 5/5 — Compass app

*2025-11-02, version 4.0*

This app is free and is just great for those who want to know which way is north and consequently south!

### 5/5 — Absolute rubbish

*2025-11-01, version 4.0*

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-03-18, version 4.0*

Disgusting ads. Do not download.

### 1/5 — App is helpful but the add attached to it disgraceful

*2026-03-05, version 4.0*

I downloaded the app and used it right away, it did the job!
But then I noticed the pictures at the bottom of the screen: small but clearly pornographic stuff! Disgraceful, disrespectful. I deleted it, there are myriad options available.

### 1/5 — Unreliable and incorrect

*2026-02-09, version 4.0*

Works poorly, not consistent and shows the opposite direction at times.  Completely unreliable.

### 1/5 — Nope

*2025-10-24, version 4.0*

Not accurate

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2025-10-06, version 4.0*

Showed S when we were most definitely going W. Truck compass also said W.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2025-05-23, version 4.0*

Extremely inaccurate.

### 1/5 — Dud

*2025-01-04, version 4.0*

Still ‘loading’ after half a day. Free, but I suppose you get what you pay for…

### 1/5 — Wrong wrong wrong

*2024-12-30, version 4.0*

The highway I’m on goes east and west, straight as an arrow. But app says I’m going south

### 1/5 — Norden ? Für diesen Kompass ist Norden ein Fremdwort

*2024-09-20*

Die Fehlanzeige beträgt ca. 100 Grad

### 1/5 — A friend in need

*2024-09-20, version 4.0*

Simple effective a good companion when in need. I find it so use ful when looking at weather predictions re wind direction or finding my way on Google maps. You know, when you are told to walk in a particular direction, a silly feature. How on earth do we know which way that is. Are we carrier pigeons. Get it!

Revised my opinion the compass for some reason is completely inaccurate!!!

What is happening. My own sense of direction tells me the sun does not arise in the west. Mysterious.
