This app displays the current compass heading together with the time, date and battery level, together with other useful information such as current location and weather, and latitude and longitude with sunrise and sunset times.

Please note the following:-

- Before opening the app, it is highly recommended to calibrate the compass sensor, by going to Menu - Settings - Sensors - Compass - Start Calibration, and follow the instructions, depending on your Garmin device.

- This app determines your heading based on your current position; therefore, in order for it to display your heading correctly you need to actually be outside and genuinely moving towards your destination. Therefore if you're attempting to test it by briefly going outside and standing still, or by walking only a couple of steps, you are very unlikely to get an accurate reading because it won't be able to determine where you are going. You need to be actually going somewhere to get a reading.

- Please note that the weather is retrieved using your location, which is taken from your last activity. In order to get the weather you must first obtain a GPS lock by opening any activity that uses GPS such as walk or run (no need to start it, just wait for the GPS to show "Ready" then exit). After this, you will need to wait up to 15 minutes (the weather update frequency) to see the weather displayed properly on your watch. If you move to a different place, you will need to obtain a GPS lock again using the above steps.

**Note on colours: Due to the display technology, some of the Garmin system colours may look muted on actual devices. You will not be able to see things on your device as they are on a computer, due to different technologies for the Garmin device display, and different monitors on the computer which host the simulator.**
