About the compass
The digital compass on your BlackBerry device works like a regular compass, but also includes additional features. For
example, you can choose whether the compass points to true north or magnetic north. The compass also works in any
direction or orientation, including upside down.
Point the compass to true north or to magnetic north
You can choose to navigate with your compass based on either true north or magnetic north. Magnetic north, which is what
a standard compass points to, can be influenced by several factors and isn't constant. True north, or geographical north, is
what you would see on a paper map and is constant. If you would prefer to navigate based on true north (for example, if you
are using your compass to follow a map) you must turn on GPS.
In the compass app, do one of the following:
• To navigate based on true north, at the bottom of the screen, set the switch to On.
• To navigate based on magnetic north, at the bottom of the screen, set the switch to Off.
Troubleshooting: Compass
I'm not getting an accurate reading from the compass
Try the following actions:
• If the compass doesn't point north, move your BlackBerry device away from metal objects, such as magnets or
electronics.
• If you have turned on Location Services and are navigating based on true north, you need the GPS receiver to be able to
connect to satellites. Try moving outside or near a window in order to establish a GPS connection.
