About Community compass
An outdoors application which can help you to find your way though the forest or desert, or whatever. It provides inter-device location exchange by SMS and can make distress call even if the device screen is broken by sending SMS with your location on your behalf.
Due to pointer-navigation nature, it can also be used as either magnetic or GPS compass reading direction to north from your device magnetic sensors or from GPS chip.
