The app also displays today's sun and moon rise and set directions and times, offering valuable astro functions for outdoor enthusiasts and navigators alike.

User Reviews

User reviews highlight that the app functions well on Wear OS watches that have a built-in compass sensor, providing accurate readings and useful additional features. However, many users face issues on watches without compass hardware where the app fails to work. There is also consistent feedback about poor documentation, unclear premium feature access, and occasional calibration challenges. Some users experienced problems with the purchase process and feature unlocking, contributing to dissatisfaction.

Pros

Works well on watches with built-in compass sensors like Ticwatch Express and Ticwatch Sport
Simple and clean design with easy-to-understand layout
Accurate compass readings after proper calibration
Includes additional features like sunrise, sunset, and moonrise information
Useful watch face with some customization options in the premium version

Cons

Does not work on watches that lack a built-in compass sensor (e.g., Ticwatch Pro 3, Fossil Q Explorist, LG Sport) leading to 'compass not found' errors
Lack of documentation or user guide for premium features and customization options
Calibration can be tricky and may require multiple attempts or outdoor environment to achieve accuracy
Some users report the paid version does not unlock features as expected or issues with purchase processing
Large app size despite being a simple compass app

Recent reviews

Giving it three stars for the time being. Paid for the full version but with no documentation on how to access customization features I'm not sure what I paid for. To the developers, do you have any sort of user guide?
