The most elegant and useful professional compass app

What it does, it does incredibly well - true and magnetic bearings, when either horizontal or vertical. Gps location readout, including magnitude of error. 2-dimensional bubble levels plus analog scale so you can assure the instrument is level. Choice of scales. I have tried multiple compass apps. This one is so intuitive yet powerful it easily rises to my top preference.
A little disappointed on IPad

I got to this link from the "other apps by hunter" feature of the app store. Wanted to use this as the main compass on a boat, but I really didn't notice that this is NOT an iPad app but an iPhone app. I mean it works, but the graphics are small and poorly rendered on an iPad. It doesn't seem that it would be a lot of work on the developers part to provide native screen support for the larger iPad screen (hint, hint). Also would like an option to REMOVE the bubble levels from the screen and perhaps another one to hide the tan-colored info boxes at either end for a cleaner look in a marine instrument environment. I DO like the extra work put into making the rosette appear 3D though, that is brilliant!
Beautiful and effective

Graphic detail is excellent and the rosette responds to incline perfectly. Direction has been accurate in my tests. Also displays position and supports MGRS, making it perfect for the military or metric-minded.
Great app. Needs UTM

I love this app and want to use it for quick position info, but it doesn't have UTM as a format so it's not compatible with my paper map.
Great

One of the best compasses on the app store it would be nice if the needle was red for north black for south and have the ability to open theodolite at the touch of a button for photos of the area. Still a great compass still wish it worked in conjunction with theodolite.
Almost what I want it to be

I like everything about the app, but would like one addition. I'd like to see an setting allowing adjustment +\- of so many degrees to make it more accurate. I know the app is limited to the info it gets from the phone, but to be able to set it to compensate for the phones deficiency would be awesome. As it stands now, mine is about 10 to 20 degrees off from my Trimble/meridian setup I use at work.
