Quick, where is north from where you are right now? You don't know? Well, you might not need it very much on a daily basis in English. But Interestingly some languages don't have words for "left" and "right", they use absolute directions. So you have e.g. a west and an east hand, or a north and a south hand, depending on where you are and where you're looking. For speakers of such languages it's crucial to know in which direction they are looking. The goal of this app is to improve your sense of direction and distance. It lets you look through the earth and see locations around the earth. You can also customise the list of places and add your own locations. In order to improve, you can play a simple guesser game. Each game last 3-7 rounds. You will be asked where a location from your list is, relative to your current position. You will be scored for each guess and you can challenge your friends via GameCenter.

Orientation Skills Learn how to orient yourself immediately. If you are facing South or East, it should be immediately clearly where North or West are. This is a great skill that will make your life much easier. Directional Memory Start to remember which direction you are facing. After each turn, you need to instinctively remember where you are facing. That takes training.
