Excellent! ### 5/5 — Great Simply Compass! *2016-01-22, version 1.1* This does exactly what it is suppose to, simply and clearly. Those of you complaining because it needs to be horizontal to work, obviously have no idea what a compass is! Ignore those idiots and get this.... It's great! ### 3/5 — The Best *2015-04-02, version 1.0* The Best, superb app. T.S.Kishorkumaar. 08056868786. We give five star for this app ### 5/5 — Mr *2014-08-20, version 1.0* No brains req easy to use as all apps should be ### 5/5 — Compass I like *2014-01-31, version 1.0* I like it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2021-07-12, version 1.1* Absolute rubbish ### 1/5 — Has ads *2021-06-19* Has ads ### 1/5 — No *2019-10-26, version 1.1* Inaccurate ### 1/5 — Does not work on my new IPad *2016-07-24, version 1.1* This compass does not work on my iPad. Not flat or up and down. When I am facing north dead on this app is all over the map. Sometimes stating N, NW, W, E and SE. I do not trust this compass. ### 1/5 — Doesn't work on dashboard *2014-10-01, version 1.0* Only works lying flat. ### 1/5 — Not working *2014-07-13, version 1.0* This app is not working on my iPad 2 even when I lay it flat. ### 1/5 — Must be horizontal *2014-03-23, version 1.0* The compass does not work if your phone is mounted on your dash so you can read it. The phone has to be laying flat (horizontal) in order to work. ### 1/5 — Fantastic ...really ? *2014-02-05, version 1.0* I loaded this on my iPad and my iPhone , but when I put them side by side to see if they were both accurate in their readings, I found that they were wildly out from each other, so not something I would trust. If you have not downloaded on both iPad and iPhone, I suggest you do. Very disappointed John ### 3/5 — Retired vet *2021-02-23, version 1.1* I would like to see a No Adds option. I would then give 5 stars ### 3/5 — Sundowner *2017-05-15, version 1.1* T It works as it should ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Compass *2026-04-06, version 1.1* Spot on use every time I go away in my motorhome to face south to get the best from my solar panels.

I’m having fun... hehe😄 Thanks!💖 ### 5/5 — Best Compass *2019-04-12, version 1.1* Works great without a lot of “clutter”!!!! ### 5/5 — Compass *2019-01-08, version 1.1* I just got this app about 2 to 2 1/2 weeks ago so I’m still testing it out for a test drive. So far I’m happy it does a far better job than the one that came with my phone. I even installed a second one as a back up and that works better than the one that came with the phone but I don’t want to sound like i’m ditching Apple. I just think they need to work on their compass a little bit. I did talk to Apple and explain my situation and they had told me that I should try to delete it and reinstall it so that’s what I did. I have to say every time I’ve talked to Apple they have been great they want to fix your problem they treat you right they don’t treat you like you’re stupid. The lady advised me to deleted it and reinstalled it which I did probably 10 times and it failed. But knowing Apple I am sure that they will work on the issue. This is not a reason not to buy an iPhone. But even then I had a second back up. I used to be a boat captain and I used to fly planes so I totally believe in having a backup When you’re talking about an instrument like a compass it only makes good sense to have a backup. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
