Pros and cons of Compass Heading- Magnetic Digital Direction Finder app for iPhone and iPad

Compass Heading- Magnetic Digital Direction Finder app good for

Trying to understand where i am at Hudson Bay with the help of Compass. Its working - i know the direction and my location :)
This compass app works well and has the basic features to help teach basic compass skill
I like this app for its great view. Easy to read day and night. Very accurate, and it changes to red on due north.
Good and reliable. Very competitive with similar over the counter products
I like the fact that it is minimalist for what I want. All I want is something to tell me that Im pointed in the right direction. I dont need a bunch of other stuff. All I did was determine how many degrees off magnetic north that true north is in my location & keep that in mind when using it. This compass does just what I need it to. Thanks.
Ive wanted an app that I could have and see while driving my car. The simpler, the Bolder, all the better! THIS IS PERFECT!!! Wish list: Bigger N. E. S. W TEXT ALTitude MPH At bottom of screen. Thanks!

Some bad moments

Its all load... And wont stop all I want to know is were east is so I can know where to hang my dreamcacher
This compass was to have both true north in a black screen and magnetic north in the red screen. It will only show the black screen ( true north). I cannot find how to change to magnetic north. The reason I downloaded this app was for the magnetic north. This is no different than all the other compass apps. This only rates one star.
First I got this app. Then I tried to find which way was north, unfortunately it point one direction and said it was north but it pointed another direction and said it was north! If I was you, I would NOT get this app! P.S this is a piece of junk!
I compared this app to the compass on an iPhone 6S, and also an analog one. This apps "compass" is way off. (Lacks precision.) What does that mean exactly? Well most anything can accurately point you to the Pacific Ocean. Its about a third of the planet right? Sailing to Hawaii (in this example) would require precision. So a compass needs both accuracy *and* precision. Unless you just want a general idea, something like this could be dangerous. Also, it doesnt fit into landscape mode when it clearly says. "For iPad." Finally, a large ad banner at the bottom cannot be closed. "Learn more about these ads" takes you to googles site. "Track me through my compass app!" Or, "Remove ads for a dollar." If it actually worked, might have done so. But money for something this imprecise? Do they teach "introduction to geometry" to app developers who are only out for a buck?
Excellent app and its accurate against compared with my Suunto compass. Even used it to calibrate my Casio ProTrek abc watch compass. Great job on this app!
Looking for a compass amp for my new tailgater. Point it west and pick up satellite signal. Seems to work so far
