Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Magnetic compass checks just got sharper.
This update adds automatic magnetic variation calculation using WMM2025 from your entered position and date, plus a new mode for calculating deviation from an observed compass course.
Device GPS position entry is now smoother too: fields lock while updating, then give clear success feedback when the position is applied.
Less manual math, fewer compass-card headaches.
