Both are free to download. Your Direction sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Compass Live asks for nothing beyond the download.
Your Direction holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Compass Live has 106 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Your Direction's written reviews are positive against 42% of Compass Live's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Your Direction ships an update every 2 months, Compass Live every 109 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and November 2, 2026 respectively.
