Compass shows you the direction your tablet is pointing, as well as your current longitude and latitude.

1. You can open Compass in the following ways:

   • Swipe down from the middle of the home screen to display the search box and search for Compass. The first result will be the preinstalled Compass app.

   • Find Compass in the Tools folder.

2. You can view directions and coordinates in the following ways:

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

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

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 tablet flat or upright when using Compass.
