Used to be my go to compass or level. But since a recent update this app is full of ads and it costs 15$/week to disable them which is a ridiculous price for a compass. To me this seems like a scam where the developer is hoping for some people to accidentally sign up to the service. The developer is commenting on it saying it is worth the price but the only perks of paying are no advertisement and customer support (why would I call customer support for a compass?)
Reviews for Compass: Accurate Compass
The reviews are right! The app is focused on ad delivery and subscription revenue. It seems the actual compass isn't even implemented as it's completely inaccurate and unreliable for even the most basic use. Honestly it's embarrassing.
Horrible app. Do not download. I tried to load the compass and got a full screen temu ad immediately. had to force close. tried to open the level, got a full screen temu ad. could not use any function. absolutely terrible app, just RUBBISH.
I've had this app for some time on my phone (literally years) never had an ad. I needed to use the compass urgently and I had to endure the ad before the compass could be accessed, Instead of having ad alongside the app. Unfortunately not being to access the compass immediately, I will be installing this. :( It was a good app.
I use my compass to help determine the best way to align my furniture to help influence healing. I need accuracy and I love the accuracy of this app. It's a must-use when you can't locate your manual compass while on a camping trip. 10🌟across the board. For the healing adventurers use this app.
This Used to be the best compass app out, clean and clear in both the compass interface and the spirit level - well designed and reliable. But the developer clearly got greedy and now there's ads every time you open it, and a roll of adds down the bottom. Garbage. And asking for pay when no ongoing service is being offered, just an app using what's already in my phone? Scumbags. I'm just going to use the built in widget in my phone. It's less functional, but doesn't shove ads in my face.
It provides my location and the direction I am holding the phone. I can use this information along with what I am spotting to quickly send a text to others that are weather spotting.update: I went to buy the paid version to support the developer and it was $14 a week. that would be more than pay for the phone. if he gets the price right I will be back. too bad it looks like a great app.
This app is totally free And does exactly What it says it does Plus a few extra little bits, So no saying it's free only to find out once you have given them your name address. email mobile no etc only to then find you cannot use or take advantage of one month's free as they still want payment up front so most free apps are not free and cannot get one months free without paying and have to uninstall it again. THIS APP IS 100% HONEST AND 100% FREE so I rated it ***** 5Stars for no tricks
Couldn't use it because there was an endless list of advertising options to opt out of. The issue isn't really that there are adds, I expect that for a free app, but rather the fact that it seems near impossible to opt out of all the tracking options
This app is just amazing. Even the calibration process is amazing. I am 72 years old, and I love living in Mexico City but I am still learning to navigate here. My Google Maps are useful but the compass is terrible. With this app I can actually tell if I am going in the direction that Google Maps intends! I am not in the position to subscribe, but I will tolerate the ads. I actually look at the ads!
