## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Nothing works

*2024-02-28*

It is not visable. White screen

### 2/5 — Poor implementation

*2024-08-19, version 1.6*

Like so many compass apps when run on the iPad, this one suffers from a careless implementation — it does not correctly manage the input to the heading API, and so does not reliably return the actual correct heading. 

The app needs to constantly monitor the device orientation, and feed that information to the API, as described in the API docs. Instead it appears to only look at the device orientation at initial runtime,and it appears to even get that wrong. If I turn the iPad to portrait, the compass direction is now correct, but the image is not centered on the screen any more.

Basically, a mess.

### 2/5 — No Mention

*2024-03-23, version 1.6*

…of “ADS”!

### 3/5 — Nice UI but has bug and is unsupported

*2021-11-04*

Love this app but noticed that SE covers around 70 degrees (100-170) whereas S covers only 20 degrees (170-190). 
I think each heading should cover the same eighth or 40 degrees.
The support email bounces.

### 5/5 — Bad

*2024-08-19*

Compuss

### 5/5 — Free

*2022-08-08, version 1.5*

This app was what I was looking for. I wish there was a way to automatically clip out the ads from the screenshots and that I could take pictures in landscape though.

### 5/5 — Excellent!!

*2020-07-19, version 1.5*

### 5/5 — Nice
