Good idea, doesn’t work

The artificial horizon precesses badly, the air speed indicator and altimeter do not work at all. I only give it 2 stars because it doesn’t seem to track any personal data or show any ads.

Upside down?

Forced into landscape mode, which is understandable. But the floating attitude indicators are upside down.

Did I miss a setting?
