Compass Eye app review 2021

Reviews

Introduction

Compass Eye by Electric Pocket is a marine navigation and bearings AR compass designed by a skipper.
The compass was especially designed to work at sea, unlike any other compass app.

Instead of having to be held flat and horizontal like any other iPhone compass app, you can get an accurate reading holding your iOS device in any orientation.

You can use it to find your way at sea or on land, and even in the air as a marching or bearing compass. For more information on this top compass app for iPhone, check out our Compass Eye app review below.

More Details

Features of the app include triangulation bearings, 8x digital zoom, choice between True North or Magnetic setting, live camera view overlaid by compass, artificial horizon, and more

The augmented reality compass gives you up to 8x zoom and works with your camera. If you’d rather not use it, you have to hold your device flat. You can use transit, collision, and back-bearing markers as well as draggable colored bearing lines.

I really wish that I’d had this app last week when I was travelling. I kept having to shake my phone to reset the compass, after I figured out why I had a blank circle staring up at me while I wondered where exactly I was headed.
