Hey HN,
I built MBCompass, a lightweight, privacy-friendly compass app for Android. It works fully offline, doesn’t ask for unnecessary permissions (no GPS, no internet), and is open source.
Most compass apps out there are bloated or ad-heavy. I wanted something clean, fast, and featurish. So I made this!
It’s only ~1.7 in size and uses a low-pass filter to smooth sensor readings.
I’d love feedback or thoughts – especially from others building simple, privacy-first apps!
