Nice app but…

Is there a way to make the topo lines darker and more visible? The more you zoom in the lighter the topo line become. Very hard to see.

Compass on Apple Watch

It doesn’t show the compass on my Apple Watch, it only shows the tabs. When I press on a compass tab it does not do anything.. any help or suggestions are welcomed?

Bate and switch

I’m sorry to report the app did not work as I was lead to believe. Be very careful. After removing the app and requesting a refund, it was turned down for no reason.

Wish it worked on the watch

Pretty disappointed in this app. I was hoping to use it as an easily visible compass on my watch, but no matter what I do to it, it only displays instructions on how to turn on background activity and the “force sleep” screen. And yes, following the instructions on the screen DOES NOT make it go away. The app is nice enough on my phone, but it’s totally useless to me there since I already have maps and compass installed.

Excellent

Best, most accurate, and easy to read compass offered on Apple. Completely simple, as real compass. Just point and you know exactly the direction in which you’re pointing.

Stupid and overly complicated

IT SHOULDNT BE SO DIFFICULT TO PUT A COMPASS ON APPLE WATCH.

I don’t get it

I don’t get it yes you have to play with apps to develop capacity to utilize them but this needs more “how to “ directions (pun intended).

No magnetic compass on Apple Watch

This has a great interface on the phone and purports to allow you to use the compass on the watch. However it only lets you see the directions feature and does not show the simple compass feature on the watch. All i wanted was to be able to look at my watch and see a compass. If improved to show the compass on the watch, would be a great app.
