Compass 4+

For some reason, my brand new Honda doesnt come with a compass. A built in compass in a car is essential for traveling with no directions. If there were an Apple CarPlay app, I would be able to see which direction im going with a tap of my finger. I know most cars come with it, but the Hondas dont for some reason, even in 2022. I think it would be great to be able to check my direction by tapping the app in my dashboard while im driving. Much easier than having to illegally use my phone to see it. Nothing is scarier than driving in an unfamiliar rural area (possibly with no cell signal) and not knowing whether youre headed north, south, east or west. Thats why its essential for the directionally challenged, or the avid traveler/explorer. By the way, the navigation apps dont show a compass on CarPlay either. Only on the phone when its disconnected from the car. If you dont want to make a specific compass app for CarPlay, at least let us see it in Apple Maps or Waze on the dash.

This app would be used a lot more by me and would be a lot more useful if the actual directions was accurate. For example, recently I was testing this app and I compared it to a real, physical compass. I faced north, so the physical compass said I was facing north, and the app says I’m facing south. Also tested the maps app against it, and north on compass was once again, completely and utterly wrong. This app is useless to me, please fix if possible.

I don’t know what going on but I used to use this app all the time but now for some reason it’s not responding what so ever. I’ll remove the app and all the data then redownload it. It does ask me to calibrate, when before it would often have me recalibrate. The compass won’t move at all. Says I’m pointing north at all times. It shows that city I’m in but that’s it. It won’t tell me what direction I’m facing at all. Help! I fit. Understand what’s happening. All my location services are on. The system service are on the calibration is on. I thought maybe it was my service area but everyone else’s phone who has the same carrier has no problem using their compass. I have no idea what’s happening. It would be nice to be able to manually select an option to recalibrate or something.
