Excellent Compass... Can we please have a Setting to set the Lat / Long (Degrees, Minutes, Seconds) in all aspects. This Compass App has features others don't... in particular the "Navigate To"

Ok. But the unit should have zoom in unit like meters or feet when the location is near. Distance in KM or Miles with only 2 decimals does not serve any purpose when tracking within small location

To be fair the developer warns that compass won't work if you stand still. Unfortunately that pretty much renders it useless for outdoor navigation. And as my new Moto G30 lacks magnetometer that rules out usual compass apps.
