We are sure you can think of many more uses.... Heres how it works:

Compass PointMeThere uses GPS data to calculate the direction you are moving. To activate Compass PointMeThere with an initial reading, move in any direction for 10-30 seconds. The compass display will rotate to show your current bearing and the needle will rotate to point to your selected location. Continue moving in any direction and the compass will update accordingly.

Compass PointMeThere also provides you with the most control of your phones GPS capabilities than any other compass application. In the Settings screen you can choose from our pre-defined GPS settings for walking, bicycling and driving, or you can use custom settings and have fine control over the Movement Threshold ( how far you must move for the compass to rotate), Accuracy Threshold ( how accurate of a GPS signal the application will insist it gets), and Distance Filter ( how far you must move for the application to request an update, larger distances saving battery life).


---Tips for Optimal Performance

*If you are not finding a signal, switch to a GPS setting with a higher accuracy threshold. The bars and number in the upper left of the compass screen show your current GPS signal strength and how accurate it is. The number should decrease until it is below your Accuracy Threshold.

*Use a Custom Profile to increase the Distance Filter for increased battery life, but less compass updates.

*When using a Custom Profile, set the Movement Threshold to around 1/4 to 1/2 of the Accuracy Threshold. Any lower and you risk the compass wandering incorrectly.

*2nd generation iPhone required for best performance

The recent 2.0 update provides greater compass accuracy. If you are having trouble with Compass PointMeThere email [email protected] for support.
