Compass for 3G (not 3GS) App Reviews

43 add

P.O.S. Freeware

tried it and screwed my phone up. Typical free app, wth the advertising crap at the top that slows your phone down.

crap

it doesnt even load!! this app is a total waste!!

You want me to walk how far ?

It asks me to walk straight for 19m. I walk 30m and it still doesnt work.

Ok

Uh a little of with coordinates and compass but pretty goo I guess. It works

Thumbs down!!!!!

Very bad! The compass doesnt even work and I cant even figure it out!

Dont bother

I would have given this less than one star but that is th lowest allowed! This is quite simply, useless! Not worth your time. Dosent work, if you NEED a compass get a 3gs.

Downloaded this in NYC after I dropped my real compass. Worked fine. Dont knock it till you try it.

Compass for 3G

This application is horrible. It doesnt work and I deleted it after screwing around with it for a half hour.

horrible

horrible, never worked. Already deleted from my iphone

Not a keeper, not accurate, not even close

This compass is way off. Without the Atlantic Ocean to confirm my directionals I would have been completely lost. This is not reliable or accurate. Delete it asap!

Works

It works just fine on my iPhone 3G. I probably wont have need to use it often but will be handy to have if i need it.

Is there some misunderstanding as to how this app works.

The developers primary language appears not to be English, so I am wondering whether some of the negative reviews relate to the fact that the instructions for the use of this app arent all that clear? As far as I can determine this app DOES NOT provide continuous compass updates. To use, one needs to 1. wait until a GPS signal is obtained. The "please wait a little, outside message." 2. Then one needs to walk in a straight direction for about 20 meters. The app will generally tell you the distance you need to walk. 3. Once sufficient distance is attained, the compass will "lock", showing your heading. 4. If you want to determine a new heading, press the stop button and then the start button (actually the same button with different labeling. And repeat the procedure. I assume for the best accuracy, that in the configuration screen "accuracy of GPS" - normal should be tapped. Hope this helps

EPIC FAIL

This interface is terrible, I followed all directions, and I walked twoards the North, And it told me North was to my right! THIS IS A FAIL!! 

OK but plz fix

i would give u five stars if you correct it more accurate

NOT A VERY GOOD APP

GOOD THING ITS FREE. NOT VERY GOOD. TELLS YOU TO WALK IN A STRAIGHT LINE. HAD TO WALK ABOUT A 1/4 MILE OR MORE TO GET IT WORK. GOING TO TAKE APP OFF MY PHONE.

Useless

Never could pinpoint my location. Glad it was free because its totally useless waste of my time. Dont bother.

Slow to load, then wrong

The compass doesnt work. It takes approximately 5 minutes to load, and then doesnt adjust its position when you do.

not usable

you must be kidding, such a lame shouldnt appear on iTunes
