Good for what it is supposed to do... get the user to orient the map with the compass and face the correct direction. It is not intended to simulate real orienteering with hills, trail, lakes, etc. The big negative is the shaking screen view. If the magnetometer sensor data was smoothed by the app, there would be no shaking. Easy fix.
