See heading and compass direction on iPhone, Apple Watch, and with a Live Activity in the CarPlay Dashboard while you drive.
Watch Compass combines a direct live compass on iPhone with the movement directions recorded by your Apple Watch. Start the Live Activity to keep heading and compass direction visible on the Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island, and automatically in the CarPlay Dashboard.
At a glance:
- current heading on a focused compass dial
- latest movement direction with timestamp
- direction profiles for today, seven days, and 30 days
- a clear history of recent measurements
- Live Activity for the Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, and CarPlay Dashboard
- widgets and Apple Watch complications
- synchronized data across iPhone and Apple Watch
Unlike a traditional compass, Watch Compass distinguishes between the current heading of your iPhone and the direction in which you were recently moving. You get immediate orientation together with a useful movement history.
