Excellent compass, This works far accurate than most of compass apps in the play store and all you need is better GPS calibration and hardware compatibility. This app works depending on hardware of the phone

I am not much of a critic. I only know that after trying to install, understand and use other compass apps which did not work for me, this one does.
