Description
Compass is an app from Melon Soft that makes it easier to navigate the terrain. The service operates with GPS enabled via the location settings of the smartphone, as well as with built-in sensors. It should be borne in mind that a magnetic sensor is required for the compass to work correctly. Most modern smartphones are equipped with such a sensor, so the application will function on almost any device. Before downloading, it is recommended to check the availability of the necessary sensors in the smartphone settings.
In order for the service to work with high accuracy, it is necessary to adjust the calibration of the magnetic field strength. Each time you launch Compass, it prompts you to calibrate the sensor according to the instructions, which makes it easier to use the application.
Key benefits:
- Compass automatically connects to Google Maps, detecting the position of the smartphone with a mark on the map.
- The service provides the exact coordinates of the location of the device, and also allows the user to enter the specified coordinates to find the desired location and put topographic markers.
- An ordinary smartphone can replace a set of tools. In addition to the compass, you can install software: sound level meter (sound level indicator), magnifying glass.
- For ease of use, the application has a function that keeps the smartphone display active.
Main functions:
- Finds True, True North.
- Define latitude and longitude indicating the location of the device. This information can be useful in emergency situations.
- The application will accurately calculate the altitude and speed of the user's movement.
- Show information about the state of the magnetic sensor, if necessary - provide instructions on how to adjust the sensor.
- Built-in level for finding deviations from an even vertical or horizontal line. If the tool makes a mistake, the errors will be corrected upon repeated use.
- The service will display the strength of the magnetic field, to which the magnetometer built into the smartphone reacts.
- "Compass" will show the angle of the phone using the accelerometer, a sensor that reacts to changes in the position of the device in space.
A compact compass is useful for navigating the terrain. The device will be especially useful in nature and in urban areas if the user does not have a map or is lost. For the application to work properly, you must provide open access to the location and connect to the Internet.

Superior UI to other apps. Slope angle, true position are cool also but I just use it with internal magnet. Even works with magnet's on outside of my case I use for the car holder stand.
Good compass
Just started using the app and with the black background it is so easy to use. So far I love it.
Very good
Does not show Magnetic North - no good to me without Magnetic north.
Love it

Good
It is very striegh forward and easy to use
