The one I made also has location, altitude and weather.

Without ads - which is the main reason I created my own, most of the compass applications I find in the store are useless/frustrating because of the amount of ads.

Yes, I know it's very basic, but does what it's supposed to.

The apk is availabe under releases https://github.com/ornatwork/Sample-Location/releases
