Notes
* IMPORTANT – Please ensure that Settings / Location Services / System Settings / Compass Calibration is switched ON. The app's 3D view will not work without it!
* The compass accuracy depends on having an undistorted magnetic field around your device. If you use it close to metallic objects or electrical equipment, directional accuracy may be impaired.

Customer Reviews

Working again! (5 stars)
Compass calibration was the culprit. Thanks for the update!

Does not download or work with new Update (1 star)
Please fix as it was great
Apple must have screwed something up

Despite numerous updates they have not fixed the program (1 star)
When I first installed this program on my IPhone 4 a year or so ago it was great. Then they updated it, and the 3d view has not worked since, despite many updates since.

Terrible quality control.
