North is just the beginning. Azimo turns the classic compass into an everyday direction-finding toolkit. Find the Qibla, discover the direction of the Sun and Moon, or return to a place you saved. Instead of plotting a route, see which way to turn and the straight-line distance to your saved destination. FIND YOUR DIRECTION Switch between North, the Kaaba, the Sun, the Moon and your saved places. Follow clear left-or-right guidance and see the remaining angle to your target. Lock a bearing when you want to keep a direction. SAVE PLACES THAT MATTER Mark your parked car, campsite or a spot you want to visit again. Name your places, choose an icon or emoji and keep favorites close at hand. Add known coordinates directly. EXPLORE THE MAP View saved places on a full-screen map. See your location and facing direction, explore freely and return to your position whenever you need to. TAKE IT TO APPLE WATCH Send saved places and your parking location to your paired Apple Watch. Direction finding on the watch requires a compatible model with a compass sensor. GO FURTHER WITH AZIMO PRO • Compass designs inspired by minimalism, expeditions, mihrab motifs, sport, cities, architecture and glaciers. • Focus mode that hides the map so you can concentrate on your direction. • A solar planner showing sunrise and sunset times and directions for your location on a selected date. • GPX export for your saved waypoints. Find your direction with Azimo. Privacy Policy [EULA]: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RfQ0-2ORnj04dXPZ2mnbTtabUA8p17nK5FTUUqOeMpc/edit?usp=sharing
