If you are lost or you have lost the North, open the compass and find the direction. Very useful application to help you with sailing, hiking or for all those travelers, sailors, adventurers, mountaineers, campers and hikers who want to know the location and orientation of magnetic north anywhere in the planet and to know where the North, South, East and West is. • Find the location and north orientation. • You can press the map option and indicate which direction a place is. • You can know the orientation and where the most relevant cities are found by clicking on the cities drop-down list. A compass is an instrument used for navigation and orientation that shows direction relative to the geographic cardinal directions (or points). Usually, a diagram called a compass rose shows the directions north, south, east, and west on the compass face as abbreviated initials. When the compass is used, the rose can be aligned with the corresponding geographic directions; for example, the "N" mark on the rose really points northward. Compasses often display markings for angles in degrees in addition to (or sometimes instead of) the rose. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

This app makes it easy to find the direction and distance to where you want to go by using the built-in compass, the GPS, and Apple maps. You line up your position (the GPS position) on the map with your destination by moving and rotating the map using one or more fingers. Turn the phone/tablet until the compass needle fits into the compass orienting arrow. Then the phone/tablet points in the direction towards the destination. Just like classical orienteering with compass and paper map. Alternatively the map can be locked to the compass such that north of the map is always the same as real north irrespective the orientation of the phone/tablet. Also the compass has a ruler such that you can measure the distance to where you want to go. Features: • The compass can orient the map with the landscape automatically or you can orient the map yourself • You get the distance and direction to where you want to go • Supports SI, imperial, and nautical units • Makes orienteering easy
