Save any place and follow the arrow back — even without internet. A simple compass that remembers where you parked, where your tent is, where you agreed to meet.
From the creators of MushTrail — the same arrow-home technology, proven in the forest.
One big button. Give the place a name and a type — Car, Hotel, Home, Camp, Meeting Point — and it becomes your target.
Explore the city, the beach, the festival. No tracking, no battery drain — the app only needs to know where you saved the place.
An orange arrow points to your place; the distance and walking time update as you move. Works with no signal at all.
A saved place is worth the most where everything around it changes — or where there is nothing to remember it by.
Years later the cemetery has grown and the rows look alike. Save the spot once — and find it again within a few metres, with a photo and a note to be sure.
A good mushroom or berry spot, a spring, a hunting stand. No landmarks needed — the arrow brings you back next season.
Went for a long walk along the shore? The way back is one arrow, no counting umbrellas.
Thousands of identical tents in the dark. Save yours in the daylight.
Airport, stadium, IKEA, ski resort. Save it on the way out, follow the arrow on the way back.
Agreed to meet “by the big tree”? Save the exact spot and share the coordinates.
True or magnetic north, heading in degrees, coordinates, altitude and GPS accuracy — all on one screen. Three dial faces, including one built for direct sunlight.
GPS works everywhere. There are no maps to download and nothing to sync — once your position is known, the arrow works on its own.
Airport parking, a hotel in a new city, a tent at a festival, a meeting point on the beach. Save it in a second, forget about it, come back.
Places, photos and notes live on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no location tracking in the background.
The free version already includes the full compass, one saved place and the arrow back to it. Compass Pro removes the ads and the limits — and it is yours forever.
Real situations, honest answers — and the way back at the end of each.
