Floating Compass

Floating Compass floats over all other apps - Google Maps, camera, video... even your lock screen!

Permissions:

SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW - Allows Floating Compass to draw over other apps. This permission is required for Floating Compass to work.

ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION - Required for true north, used to calculate declination based on your current location

Features include:

Floats over all apps, with option to show on lock screen

Drag and drop

Portrait or landscape

Four sizes to choose from

True north (requires location services permission)

Small memory footprint

Intelligent power management when screen is off or battery is low

Foreground notification to manage the compass

All feedback is welcome and encouraged! This is a very early stage MVP that was born from a personal need, but it's also something that I believe can add niche value to the Play Store over time. Please, submit feature requests and report bugs!
