A clean, free iPhone compass with no ads. Save a parking spot, campsite, hotel, trailhead, or meeting point, then follow a clear bearing back when you need it. Compass Waypoint is built for parking, hiking, camping, travel, and everyday moments when you want simple direction guidance instead of a complex map. Use it as a modern compass for quick heading checks, or save waypoints and paths when you want help returning later. Key features: - Free modern compass with heading, coordinates, altitude, speed, slope, and GPS accuracy. - Save places like parking spots, campsites, hotels, trailheads, and meeting points. - Record a path, then trace it back with distance and direction guidance. - Use AR Mode to see direction cues over your surroundings when navigating to a saved target. - Local-first by design: your waypoints and paths stay on your device by default. - No account, no ads, no social feed, and no map-first interface. Compass is built for outdoor walks, hiking, parking lots, campsites, travel days, and any moment when you want a direct bearing instead of a full map. Start with the free compass. Compass Pro is available for AR Mode and expanded save limits when you need more. Notes: - Compass guidance depends on your iPhone sensors, GPS signal, and location permission. - Path Trace Back provides bearing-and-distance guidance. It is not turn-by-turn road navigation. - Continued use of GPS in the background while recording a path can decrease battery life.
