About this app
TrueN Compass is a precision compass for hikers, photographers, surveyors, and anyone who needs an accurate bearing — fast.
It uses your phone's rotation-vector sensor with low-pass filtering on the unit-vector circle, so the dial is rock-steady instead of jittery. Switch between magnetic and true north in one tap; declination is auto-calculated from your GPS location.
KEY FEATURES
• True north / magnetic north toggle with automatic declination
• GPS coordinates in decimal (DD) or degrees-minutes-seconds (DMS)
• Altitude and reverse-geocoded address
• Bubble level (pitch + roll) for hand-leveling shots
• Bearing lock — tap the dial to set a target heading and follow the offset
• Calibration figure-8 prompt when sensor accuracy drops
• Haptic feedback when crossing N / E / S / W and on bearing target
• Material 3 design with system-following dark mode
• Korean and English localization
PRIVACY
Your location is used only on-device to compute true north, show coordinates, and look up the nearest address. It never leaves your phone. The location permission is optional — magnetic heading works without it.
