Let’s learn how to read a compass. Usually younger students are taught how to read a compass in class. It’s not difficult to read the compass, so if you know a little bit, you’ll be able to understand it easily.

How to Read the Compass (feat. Finding North, South, East and West Directions)

While looking for a compass app, I found a simple designed compass app and tried it. It is an application that also has a direction indicator and level function. While other compass apps have a real compass feel in design, this app uses a compass with a familiar design. So it caught my eye and I started using it.

When you run the application, you must give the current location permission. I don’t think it’s necessary, but I gave permission and used it once.

When run, it displayed directions along with a compass based on your current location. A compass in the middle indicates direction. And at the bottom, the azimuth, latitude, and longitude are displayed, so it was possible to grasp at a glance.

There is a map icon at the bottom. Tap the icon to display a compass mark on the map. In other words, you can know the direction right away by looking at the map. The ability to see the compass on the map was a useful feature.

Swipe the screen sideways to see the level. It is also called bubble level, and it is a function to check how level it is. If it is not level, the circle moyai in the middle will come out to the side. The farther away from the center circle, the less level it is.

There are no other settings other than that. As the goal of this app is to aim for a simple compass app, it’s really simple.

Simple Compass – Here and there direction gauge, level app review
It was a really simple compass app to use. It was nice that you could see the direction with a compass and the azimuth below it, so you could check it at a glance. And there are no ads, so I was able to use the app comfortably.

 

The design also felt more friendly than the general black compass apps, perhaps because of the use of a purple color. I thought it would be easier for children to access than apps that use a real compass design. So I think it would be good to use it to teach children how to read a compass and how to read an azimuth.

The function of viewing the compass on the map seems to be useful when hiking or walking on a mountain path so as not to get lost. Placing the compass on the map definitely gave me a different feel for the direction. If you want to use a neat compass app without ads, we recommend this app.
