Online Compass
Find North, South, East & West Directions Instantly
About This Compass
This interactive compass is fully functional and shows real-time direction. It relies on your device's orientation sensors (magnetometer, accelerometer, and GPS) to determine heading. Simply open this page on any modern phone or computer and allow sensor access. The compass will display which way is North (N), East (E), South (S), or West (W), along with the exact degree heading.
Below the compass widget, you can tap or click the screen to calibrate (which improves accuracy) and, if you allow location permissions, you'll also see GPS coordinates and altitude. According to one source, enabling GPS will reveal "longitude and latitude" as well as "elevation above sea level".
