    $0.99 for a clean & ad-free app? Sounds like the kind of thing I'd be happy to pay for if I used a compass like ever.

    Not really. Theoretically you can use Google Maps as a compass, but otherwise no. Per the article:

    Shockingly, Google is yet to build its own native compass or level tool app for Android. Most third-party phone makers have taken matters into their own hands, but modern Pixel phones still don't provide a user-facing app for accessing coordinates, altitude, magnetism, and other useful metrics. Thankfully, Compass has you covered.
