Description

A totally free, accurate and fully customizable compass and spirit level, with no ads, a lightening-fast start-up time and support for HD screens!

Now supports Android Wear!

FEATURES:
• No irritating ads
• Smooth and accurate compass
• Digital and easy-to-use spirit level
• Customise the holo theme, colors and compass style (more options coming soon)
• Displays heading and direction clearly
• Minimalist design is easy to use and quick to launch
• Less than 4 megabytes in size
• No impact on battery life

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).
If you have an idea for a feature that you'd like to be added, or if you're a developer and you'd like to talk about the code, send me an email! I'll try to add a new feature each time the app moves up a download bracket.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Not sure how.
1 ★Crap!
4 ★The number in degrees doesn't show on the Moto 360 and unfortunately it is cut off on the bottom but that's not your fault. Works great on the phone.
5 ★Sit the 360 on the table and rotate it... north drifts 30 degrees . But do the same with the Nexus 5 and it works fine. Can't fault this app for that.
5 ★Really handy, looks great too!
2 ★Color customization doesn't carry over to watch
5 ★Very nice thanks. Now fully functional and working well. Now has stars it deserves. :-)
5 ★I have downloaded a LOT of compass apps but this by far the clearest and the best. It is beautifully designed with a number of options and it can be customised fully. You can find true north with the GPS which is really very handy!! A brilliant app!!!
5 ★Compass is brilliant! No drain on battery life, and it works perfectly offline too. Without a doubt the best compass out there, much better then any of the paid ones. And the best part is NO ANNOYING ADS! Finally, a good app with no ads! I would recommend this to absolutely anyone!
