## What is Direction & GPS Map Compass?

Turn your iPhone into a precision navigation instrument. Whether you're hiking a mountain trail, finding your way through an unfamiliar city, or simply need to know which direction you're facing — this compass delivers accurate, real-time heading with a beautifully crafted interface.

PRECISION COMPASS
A finely detailed compass rose with smooth needle movement shows your exact heading in degrees or mils. Switch between magnetic north and true north with a single tap. The large, easy-to-read display shows your cardinal direction, numeric heading, and GPS coordinates — all updating in real time.

CAMERA OVERLAY MODE
Activate the telescope mode to see compass data overlaid directly on your camera feed. Align real-world landmarks with precise bearings. Perfect for orienteering, surveying property lines, or identifying distant peaks on a hike.

INTERACTIVE MAP
View your position and heading direction on a full interactive map. Switch between standard, satellite, and hybrid views. Save important locations — your parked car, a campsite, a trailhead — and navigate back to them with distance and bearing displayed at a glance. Share any saved location with friends and family instantly.

PROFESSIONAL TOOLS
Three built-in tools replace separate apps:

• Bubble Level — A precision spirit level using your device's motion sensors. Shows pitch and roll angles with a clear visual indicator. Know instantly when a surface is perfectly flat.

• Speedometer — Real-time GPS speed displayed in km/h, mph, or knots. Tracks your maximum speed and shows current course and altitude. Ideal for road trips, cycling, or boating.

• Qibla Finder — Calculates the exact bearing and distance to the Kaaba from anywhere in the world. A dedicated compass arrow points toward Qibla, with a confirmation indicator when you're facing the correct direction.

BUILT FOR THE OUTDOORS
Works completely offline — no internet connection required for compass, level, or speed readings. The dark interface is designed for readability in bright sunlight, and an optional night mode switches to a red-on-black display that preserves your night vision during stargazing or night hikes.

THOUGHTFUL DETAILS
• Haptic feedback when crossing cardinal directions
• Heading accuracy indicator with calibration guide
• Multiple coordinate formats: decimal degrees and DMS
• GPS altitude display
• Low-pass filtered heading for smooth, jitter-free needle movement
• Supports both portrait and landscape orientation

No ads. No subscriptions. No account required. Just open the app and start navigating.

Designed for iPhone. Requires iOS 17 or later.
