About
the
compass
The digital compass on your BlackBerry device works like a regular compass, but also includes more 
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.
Get
a
compass
reading
To get a compass reading, rotate and tilt your BlackBerry device.
The current direction that youhre facing appears at the top of the screen.
Point
the
compass
to
true
north
or
to
magnetic
north
You can choose to navigate with your compass using either true north or magnetic north. Magnetic 
north, which is what a standard compass points to, can be influenced by several factors and isnht 
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:
tTo navigate based on true north, at the bottom of the screen, turn on the switch.
tTo navigate based on magnetic north, at the bottom of the screen, turn off the switch.
Troubleshooting:

tIf you have turned on Location Services and are navigating based on true north, you need the GPS  receiver to be able to connect to GPS satellites. Try moving outside or near a window in order to 
establish a GPS connection.
