Outdoor Compass: Hike GPS

🧭 So you never lose your way on the mountain — a must-have outdoor app combining a compass, GPS coordinates, altitude, and return guidance in one.

Hiking, backpacking, camping, trekking… dependable even deep in the mountains where signal is weak.
Outdoor Compass works using only your device's sensors, with no internet connection.

◆ Precise Compass
• Choose true north or magnetic north — automatic declination (magnetic deviation) correction based on your location
• 16-point cardinal directions and bearing shown to 1°
• Real-time sensor accuracy display, with warnings when nearby metal or magnetic interference is detected
• Figure-8 calibration guidance to stay accurate at all times

◆ GPS Coordinates
• Supports latitude/longitude (decimal degrees / degrees-minutes-seconds), UTM, MGRS, and military grid formats
• Long-press to copy coordinates — useful for rescue requests or sharing your location
• GPS accuracy (±m) display

◆ Altimeter
• Uses barometric altitude on devices with a barometer, and GPS altitude automatically on devices without one
• Calibrate at a point of known altitude, such as the trailhead, to keep accurate altitude throughout your hike
• Direct sea-level pressure calibration and reset to the standard value

◆ Waypoints & Return Guidance
• Save the trailhead, parking spot, and trail junctions all at once
• A single return button guides you to a saved point with direction and remaining distance
• Target bearing tracking — vibration alert when aligned straight ahead

◆ A Display Built for the Outdoors
• High-contrast light theme that stays readable under sunlight
• Red night mode that preserves dark adaptation during night hikes
• Keep screen always on, with large buttons easy to tap even with gloved hands

◆ More Features
• Choose meter or feet units
• Receive a hiking reminder at the time you want each day

▸ Permissions
• Location: used only to show GPS coordinates and altitude and to calculate true north
• Notifications: used only to send hiking reminders
The compass (magnetic north) works even without location permission.
