Is Wavelet bad?
Care to explain?
Right? Use Fast Equalizer - Bass Booster by KaplanApps, free, no ads, works great.
This list seems to be based entirely on aesthetics, not necessarily recommendations for apps with good features or functionality.
Agree!
Every screenshot there is eye-searing with nearly the entire screen filled with 100% white.
Enable dark mode and you'll be fine? While using the apps of course.
Or you mean you'd like dark mode to be enabled for the screenshots? Images don't work that way unfortunately. π₯²
Seems like all the links are broken, also why the hell would I pay for a compass app? Gramophone seems good though.
$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.
does android not have a compass?
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.
it has an awesome level as well
Also cool features like making your camp site and having your compass point the way to it. It's a good exercise for kids e.g.
the compass app there is awesome! just bought it
What is awesome about it?
Have you tried trail sense? Comes with a compass but does a lot more.

I added it with Fdroid but it is in the playstore.
I downloaded trail sense to compare, but they just are apples to oranges. trail sense looks like an awesome app and I'm happy to add it to my collection of useful tools!
This compass app (and level, too) is simply the most polished and perfected version of a phone compass or level that exists. The haptics feedback, to every small animation and detail, to the minimal but feature-packed design.
It is SO thoughtful and laser focused on just being a really really good compass and level.
This should be a native Android app. I bought it on a whim to try it but holy crap it is just so perfect especially if you notice and care about minor details
Damn you really sold it here. I'm eager to try it out some time.
Thanks for the reply. Indidntnknow about the haptoc part. That is interesting.
