Pro Compass App Reviews

The app won’t display true north. It just states NA (not available) in the true north slot. And it doesn’t show why it’s NA, or what to adjust to get it to show true north. Having true north is the only reason I downloaded this app.

This is one of the best compasses available for the iPhone, I really like that shows true and magnetic north at the same time. 5 stars well deserved.

These Hunter Research apps are quite useful, easy to use and offer terrific utility for anyone who works or plays outdoors. In-app purchases add utility and are well worth the modest expense.(This comment revised to excise remarks about in-app purchases not transferring across devices. See developer statement nearby.)

I use Compass and Theodite from this developer and am very satisfied going on about 5 years now. Recently I have been encouraging my loved ones to place Pro Compass App on the first page of their iPhone with settings on UTM-B. Now if they have an emergency in today’s unstable environment, they can dial 911 and read the UTM-B number when they don’t know exactly where they are at. Especially import for our most vulnerable family members.

I love these apps. Used them for years for rough estimates; however, I wish the margin of errors were smaller. In the compass it is obvious that the margin of error is very conservative, but still would prefer them to be smaller. I would suggest these apps to anyone though.

My former app was dropped by Apple; uploaded this today and I’m in love. Bravo, Craig. Well done!

Hunter has done another great app!

Wouldn't expect anything less from Hunter!

Graphic detail is excellent and the rosette responds to incline perfectly. Direction has been accurate in my tests. Also displays position and supports MGRS, making it perfect for the military or metric-minded.

I love this app and want to use it for quick position info, but it doesn't have UTM as a format so it's not compatible with my paper map.

Like the compass Not impressed with the accuracy

This app would get a five star rating if you could use UTMs instead of Degrees, Minutes, Seconds. DMS is not very useful for what I want to be doing. Especially if it is being advertised as a "Geologic Compass".

Perfect for land nav. Makes my lensatic compass my backup.

It's really cool. If you're looking to upgrade over stock iOS compass look no further. Feature rich but still easy to use. Someone complained it was not an iPad app. It never claimed to be! Foul ball on the negative review there!

This an awesome app! GPS receiver and compass in one. Bearings seem to be much more accurate than the conservative 15 degree uncertainty range stated.

but a 15% margin for error is substantial

I’m big fan of Hunter’s Theodolite App and picked this app up to complete the package. Another quality app from a great company with EXCELLENT support.

Geodesic info at your finger tip.Works great on iPhone & iPad. Too bad I can’t get rid of the iPhone compass. I also have Theodolite. How about a “red” backlight for us owls and astronomers?

I really like it. It loads great on 6 plus. Like that it provided mag north and real north w variation. Easy to use and accurate

I love this compass app vs others. Not to mention its inclinometer is also nice for leveling or adjusting tilts.

I hike all over the country. This is absolutely the best I've ever used. Great work my friends.

Excellent app, easy to use, accurate, very nice design.

Having the capability of using the compass and level at the same time is a great feature. Flying drones, this comes in very handy.

This app has proven to be a useful. I have used this a a first step tool when a driver has turned over a truck while dumping for our company to determine if the area was level and my findings were equal to that of professional equipment.

After getting this, I deleted all my other Compass applications

Would be better if it has watch support :-)

This is both a fine scientific instrument and an easy to use tool. For a small investment you have a tool that can be used to hang a picture, or conduct a field survey. It’s my go-to for measuring!

A great tool and very good app. Personally I prefer the previous look and feel - “refreshed” graphics seem to go against the fundamental idea. Still looks 1000x better than the built-in compass though and far more usable.

Well built tools. Buy the bundle.
