Description

From the listing uploaded by “d0ss”.

Easy to use compass and spirit level application with magnetic north, coordinates, exact address and offline off road navigation.

Basic compass functionality is also available on Wear OS devices. Attention: • Please wave your device around several times in a figure of eight (∞) to calibrate it!

Compass APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is Compass free?

The APK is free to download, but the app offers in-app purchases through Google Play.

Is the Compass APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is a364ffae78a53b115109c9ca05e74448.
