I am constantly working on improvements. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother..... *2019-01-18* Doesn’t work... **Developer response:** sorry to hear this. What exactly does not work for you? ### 1/5 — Does not work as advertised *2018-12-01* This app does not work as advertised. **Developer response:** Sorry to hear this. What does not work for you? ### 1/5 — Does not work *2018-11-08* Does not show up on watch and you cannot do anything from the iPhone app **Developer response:** Did you install the watch app to your apple Watch? ### 1/5 — No funciona bien está fatal me arrepiento de verla comprado *2018-11-03* No funciona esta loco el compás a parte de lento nada que ver ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2023-09-26* Paid for this app and cannot get it to work at all. On phone it says use settings on watch. Does not work. A total waste of time and money. ### 1/5 — Mr *2020-12-04* That aplication i did pay and aplication not working,can i have noney back Please **Developer response:** Sorry to hear that.

And there’s no support to show you how to use it. Don’t waste your money **Developer response:** Thank you for your review and sorry to hear that. I am constantly working on improvements. ### 1/5 — Compass *2019-10-14* Not a compass it doesn’t work **Developer response:** Thank you for your review and sorry to hear that. I am constantly working on improvements. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2019-07-09* If I try to change the settings in the app on the phone it continuously asks me to open up the app on the watch which is open and continues to give me the error anyhow. And although the developer tries his best to explain in the app info that this does not work like the Compass on the iPhone it’s pretty useless as a Compass if you have to be moving all the time to get a bearing. The phrase stopping to get your bearings is used because you need to stop when you’re trying to figure out which you’re going. Waste of $2.79. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. Sorry you didn't like it. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work at all *2019-06-30* Don’t buy it **Developer response:** Thank you for your review and sorry to hear that. I am constantly working on improvements. ### 1/5 — Steve *2019-05-25* Shocking app! Paid 1.99 and I reckon if I threw a stick in the air it would have more chance of telling me where north is! **Developer response:** Thank you for your review and sorry to hear that. I am constantly working on improvements. ### 1/5 — Load of rubbish *2019-05-19* I bought the package of 3 apps hoping for good things but none work. Seems impossible to access any settings do at through mercy of the developer. Please give me my money back as these apps dimply do nothing. ### 1/5 — Nada preciso *2019-05-13* Ele não dá a coordenada correta, precisa calibrar o app **Developer response:** O aplicativo funciona com GPS. Portanto, não precisa ser calibrado ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works perfectly, very cool *2019-03-12* Really like this. One of the few apps worth paying for. Would be even better if icon could be customisable. Similar to the wind complication ideally. **Developer response:** Thanks a lot! ### 3/5 — No settings???? *2019-10-15* How do you set mag north or true north?? Cannot find any settings options. Can the developer please respond? Thanks. **Developer response:** Thank you for your review. The app uses the gps direction for the compass functionality. This is always the truth north. You cannot set it to magnetic north ### 2/5 — Arrow points in wrong direction!!! *2018-10-22* Numeric degrees in direction travelling is accurate. However the arrow points completely in the wrong direction. e.g. shows you heading west when in fact you’re heading East!! **Developer response:** Hi, Thanks for your comment. I was thinking a lot in which direction the arrow should point. But at the end i decided that it always points north like a real compass. So when you heading east the arrow points left. Because this is the direction north. Best Bernhard --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
