      again.
      the directing indicator is wrong.
      I verified it with Google maps. the Samsung compass app also shows my correct position, facing dead south

        If you speak about the blue dot with a arrow, its position is correct by GPS, but the arrow indicate nothing, just forget it.

          @idefix37 the indicator is turning as I turn my phone, thus its connected to compass.
          Also I notice that portrait mode and turning the screen to panorama mode, also deviate by 45°

          The direction indicator is helpful in the rain radar view to see instantly where it's coming from.

          ignoring a bug is NOT a solution btw ;)
