★★★☆☆Bubbles move backwards
Beautiful graphics but the bubbles move backwards. Possibly because I wear the watch on my right wrist with the crown closest to my elbow?
★★★★★Very cool, when you grok it.
Running successfully on Watch Series2. This is a gyrocompass. Each time you use it, you first initialize it to a reference direction. Then it uses the gyroscope capabilities of the watch to maintain that reference. Works for me well on hikes and on the bike. Bubble levels do their thing just fine, too, and add to accuracy when you respect them for a directional reading. Note that you load this software directly on watch using App Store watch app, not your phone. Read what developer is saying, I
★★★☆☆It could be useful
It doesn’t seem to be using the watch gps and there’s no calibration option. You basically try to find one of the 4 directions and spin the crown until you set this direction as close as you think it’s right.
I guess it could be helpful if you get lost and you have nothing but the watch and you trying to move in a straight.
It be nice to have a lock button so that after you set the compass, it disables/lock the crown button so you don’t accidentally spin it.
★★☆☆☆Crashes
Have the latest iWatch with cellular... app crashes. Contacted app support, they were quick to answer/unaware of any issue(s). I've power cycled watch/deleted and reinstalled -- no go.
I'm looking forward to a fix.
★★★★★THE compass to use
This is a functional app that also looks great on your watch. It does so much more than the basic Apple compass. And the price is for purchase, not a subscription. There’s nothing not to like.
