Find out which direction your important places are in—without building a route. Add one or more points to the map: your home, parking spot, meeting place, campsite, landmark, or any other destination. The compass shows their position relative to the direction your iPhone is facing and their approximate straight-line distance. The horizontal compass strip displays multiple points at once. Places outside the selected field of view remain pinned to the edges, so you always know which way to turn. Key features: • Add points by touching and holding the map; • View multiple destinations simultaneously; • See the direction and distance to each point; • Save favorite places and control their visibility; • Customize the compass field of view; • View cardinal directions and bearing; • Use Live Activities on the Lock Screen; • Navigate easily without turn-by-turn directions or predefined routes. The app is useful for walks, travel, festivals, hiking, finding your parked car, exploring an unfamiliar city, or any situation where you need to see the general direction to several places at once. Choose your points, open the compass, and simply see where they are.
