A compass is an instrument used to determine direction. This app helps you find your bearings while hiking, traveling, or when visibility is limited due to fog. The compass app determines the cardinal directions (north, south, east, and west) using the Earth's magnetic field. This compass app displays GPS altitude. It also shows the bearing (azimuth) at the top of the screen. The application allows you to share your current location with others and view your position on a map. To view the aurora, use this compass app to find north in the Northern Hemisphere and south in the Southern Hemisphere. This compass app displays the tilt of the compass and helps indicate accurate directions. You can view today’s sunrise and sunset times. Select a date on the calendar to calculate the sunrise and sunset times for that date.
