Deactivate the compass
Select again. The map is oriented north.

The compass is active when it is green. If the compass needs calibration, the compass

is red.

Calibrate the compass
Turn the phone around until it beeps or vibrates.

The compass has limited accuracy. Electromagnetic fields, metal objects, or other

external circumstances may also affect the accuracy of the compass. The compass

should always be properly calibrated.
