Android based app with auto declination adjustments using GPS location. Declination information calculated using the latest 2025 WMM data available from https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/DoDWMM.shtml.

Auto declination adjustments using GPS
Manual declination adjustments
Degree's and NATO mils modes
Night modes available (red and green night modes)
Four compass roses available (two in degrees, two in NATO mils)
Displays the current bearing as well as the reverse bearing

Download Source Issues ChangeLog

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).

Google Mobile Services© (Development Framework)
Google Mobile Services in terms of the Android library refers to Google Play Services, a proprietary background service and API package for Android devices which is not part of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP). The library does not contain those services (i.e. it usually requires the Google Framework, often referred to as „GApps“, being installed on the device), but allows an app to communicate with them. Be aware this usually goes along with transferring at least parts of your personal data to the Google network.
