PERMISSIONS:
The app needs access to your location to calculate the direction of north. Unlike most other compass apps, this one doesn't need internet access!

INFO:
This compass depends on your phone's sensors - it's only as good as they are!
The compass (like ordinary compasses) mightn't be accurate if you try to use it near a magnet or a big chunk of metal (like a car).
