Watch 9 new compass app

Just want everyone's opinion of what you think of the new compass app.
I love the fact that you can input waypoints and find your way back along with other features.

thanks

I think it's fine but overly complicated. It tries to be too smart, most likely to save battery life, which is fine. I would rather it be baked into the workout app as well. It just seems to leave out random things.
For example, the compass complications, for the elevation, the numbers are so small and there are 3 lines on top and the bottom of the complication. Why? Why not use the space, so we can actually see the elevation. Some of the design decisions are baffling to me.

One thing I noticed on my series 5 is that the new app gives a live elevation reading. This was touted as a new ‘feature’ on the S6 when it was released.

I love it! Very cool app! I had to play with it a bit to see how it worked….but once I figured it out….loved it! The backtrack feature, way points and the overall look of the compass are the high points for me!

I like it but I can't do that because I'm still using S5.
