Compass app works with magnetic sensor.
If you are using a case with a magnet, or if there is a smartphone, mobile battery, power outlet, or other object that generates magnetism nearby, it may not work properly.
Please use it in a state where there is no object that generates magnetism.
Some models do not have a gyro sensor/magnetic sensor. The compass does not work on that model, so please check with your dealer.
If you feel that the orientation is off, please calibrate the magnetic sensor.
The magnetic sensor will be adjusted by turning the smartphone to draw the figure of eight, so please try it.
