Heard this on Five Live in the early hours that every smart phone has one. Even though I don't use my one at present I did try and find this app? I presume.

Anybody came across theirs?

yet to see a phone compass that is consistently reliable just a gimmick .

should not be getting lost in the lake district ,just a couple of wee hills and a puddle in a field

Mine doesn't seem to be working. Looks like it's gone South.

Easy ...

every schoolboy knows that the top of a map is north.

Just place the map on the floor - flat, mind - and start walking.

Word of warning ... If you walk too far and go past the north pole, you'll be heading south.

Mind how you go
