Digital Compass

Digital Compass shows your heading from your phone's magnetic sensor. It also tells you when the reading is hard to trust. It does not hide a weak sensor. It shows Good, Caution, or Bad with one short reason and what to do about it. You can also save a direction, such as your tent door, and find it again later with "Turn 20° to the right" guidance.

■ See your heading at a glance
· The Home tab shows a large arrow, your heading in degrees, the direction name such as NE, and how much your phone is tilted.
· The Measure tab has a full compass dial and a level bubble in the center. The top line stays fixed, so you can read the direction you are facing.
· Choose 8 or 16 direction names in Settings.
· Tap Hold value to keep a heading on screen, then save it.

■ Know when to trust the sensor
· Sensor status is shown as Good, Caution, or Bad with one line of reason. Magnetic field strength (µT) and sensor accuracy appear in small text.
· If accuracy is low, the app shows how to calibrate: move your phone in a figure 8.
· If a magnet or metal may be too close, the app tells you. Remove a magnetic case or mount, and move away from steel desks, cars, and electronics.
· If the sensor gives no data, the app does not draw a normal-looking needle. If your phone has no magnetic sensor, the app says so.
· Magnetic field strength is only a hint to check for interference.

■ Save a direction and find it again
· Tap Save to name the current heading and keep it.
· Open the Saved directions tab and tap Find. The app says "Turn 20° to the right" or "Turn 20° to the left" until you face it. It shows On target when you match.
· On the Home tab, compare your heading with a saved direction.
· Rename or delete saved directions at any time.
· Saved directions and settings stay on your phone. You can make a backup file and restore it later.

■ Made to fit your phone
· Portrait and landscape, light and dark themes, large text, and 35 languages.
· The app stops reading the sensor when you leave it. When you return, it reads fresh values first.

■ Good to know
This app shows magnetic north, not true north. Readings can be wrong inside steel buildings, in cars, or near magnets, even after calibration. Do not rely on this app alone for navigation or safety.
