About this app
Lezo's Compass is not your ordinary compass. It doesn't care about north. No matter how you turn your phone, its needle always points, with geographical precision, in the exact direction of England.
The app is inspired by the saying attributed to Admiral Blas de Lezo, the sailor who humiliated the largest British fleet ever assembled in the defense of Cartagena de Indias: "Every good Spaniard should always pee facing England."
HOW IT WORKS
It combines your device's approximate location with its orientation sensors to calculate the great circle bearing to London (51.51°N, 0.13°W). It also applies the magnetic declination of your position, so the needle points to true north, not magnetic north: the result is geographically accurate.
WHAT IT OFFERS
• A needle that always points to London, no matter how you turn your phone.
• Bearing calculation with magnetic declination correction.
• Vibration when you align your phone with England (±5°).
• Calibration alert when the sensor loses accuracy, with the classic figure-eight motion.
• Light and dark modes with a Spanish Golden Age aesthetic: imperial navy blue, antique gold, burgundy red, and parchment white.
• A touch of national pride and a great sense of humor.
PRIVACY BY DESIGN
This compass wants nothing to do with you:
• No internet connection required. The app doesn't even request network permission.
• No telemetry, no analytics, no advertising.
• No accounts or logs. Just open it and point.
• Minimal permission: only your approximate location, used at the moment to calculate the bearing and never stored or sent anywhere.
London's coordinates are hardcoded, so the app works completely offline.
A MISSION, ACCOMPLISHED WITH ADMIRAL PRECISION
Whether you want to pay homage to Spanish naval history or simply want to know at all times where perfidious Albion lies, Lezo's Compass fulfills its sole purpose without distractions: no maps, no routes, no ads. Just a steady needle and a clear destination.
Download it, give it your location, and let the needle do the rest.
