Customer Reviews
Cool!
The negative reviews for this app emphasize that lots of people are uncomfortable with science.
The only thing this FREE app could use is one sentence instructions telling you to 'put your finger in the middle of the compass and line it's shadow up with the app's shading'.
Thanks for the fun app that will amaze children and science refugees, and provide a reminder of our place in the solar system.
Does NOT also make toast!
This is a simple sundial compass. I read several reviews before installing, and it seems people expect this app to not only point the direction they are going, but also book a hotel and rental car when they get there. The cardinal directions on the face are NOT supposed to change, as this is a sundial, only the shadow on the screen moves based on the time of day. The directions for use are clearly stated in the provided info. This is a basic survival tool, and its function is obviously lost on the majority of app users. I am very impressed by the clever simplicity and usefulness of this app!
very cool
a nice simple and free app. if you can see a shadow, you can find north. good for school-age kids.
