Description
Smart Compass is in the 3rd set of the Smart Tools collection.
This compass is a tool to search bearings using the built-in magnetic sensors. It has 3 significant features.

2. The Camera's view is used for reality.
3. Metal Detector(magnetic field) is included to verify the sensors.

Rather accurate. Gorges battery. Does not close on Wildfire. Had to remove battery to shut down.

Nice that it doesn't need internet, but a HUGE battery drain. Plus didn't match the car compass so I'm not sure it works.

Currently only shows magnetic north, needs true north option. Needs warning of inaccuracy when phone is held in portrait, mode is landscape.
