Compass

Compass shows you the direction your phone is pointing, as well as your current coordinates and altitude.

1. You can open Compass using either of the following methods:

   • Swipe down from the middle of the home screen to display the search box. Search for Compass, and the first result will be the pre-installed Compass app.

   • Find Compass in the Tools folder.

2. To view your bearings, coordinates, and altitude:

   • If you hold your phone flat, the Compass screen will display a dial together with the direction your phone is pointing, your current coordinates, and altitude.

   • If you hold your phone upright, the Compass screen will display the viewfinder of the rear camera on your phone, together with the direction your phone is pointing, your current coordinates, and altitude.

3. To lock your current direction, touch the compass dial. The dial marks will turn blue if you go off course.

For more accurate bearings, hold your phone flat or upright when using Compass.

For more precise altitude data, touch and enable Online altitude calibration.
