Compass for Android

Compass for Android — Terms of Use

NextOne Labs LLC — Effective date: November 14, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and NextOne Labs LLC (“we”, “us”, “our”) for the Compass app for Android (“the app”). By downloading or using the app you agree to them. The Google Play Terms of Service also apply to your use of Google Play. If you do not agree, please do not use the app. Compass for iPhone and iPad has its own terms.

1. The App

We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app on Android devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, for as long as you follow these terms. If you are under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms and to any purchase.

2. Free Version and Ads

The app is free to download. The compass, Way Back, waypoints, Find My Car, Sun & Moon and the outdoor tools can be used without paying. The free version shows ads from Liftoff. What data ads and analytics use, and the choices you have, are explained in the Privacy Policy.

3. Compass Pro

Compass Pro is optional. It removes ads and adds trail GPX export and the Find My Car extras (meter reminders, a photo and note of the spot, several vehicles, parking history and the widget). The Compass Pro screen shows what is included before you buy.

• Plans: a yearly subscription, which may start with a free trial; a monthly subscription; or a one-time Lifetime purchase. The price, billing period and any trial or introductory price are shown in the app and on Google Play before you buy, in your local currency and including any applicable taxes. We may change prices for future purchases and renewals.
• Payment: purchases are made and billed through Google Play, using the payment method in your Google account. We do not receive your payment details.
• Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period, at the then-current price, until you cancel. If a subscription price goes up, Google Play tells you in advance and, where required, asks for your agreement.
• Free trials: you are not charged during a trial. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, the subscription starts and your Google Play payment method is charged automatically. Trials are for new subscribers, under Google Play’s eligibility rules.
• Cancel: at any time in the Google Play Store app › your profile picture › Payments & subscriptions › Subscriptions › Compass, or from Settings › Manage subscription in the app. Uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription. After you cancel, Pro stays active until the end of the period you have paid for, and you are not charged again.
• Refunds are handled by Google Play under Google Play’s refund policies; you can request one from your Google Play order history. Except where Google Play grants a refund or the law requires otherwise, payments are non-refundable and we do not give refunds or credits for partly used periods.
• Lifetime: a one-time purchase, not a subscription, with no renewals. It unlocks Compass Pro on Android devices signed in to the Google account you used to buy it, for as long as we make the app available on Google Play.
• Restore purchases: on a new or reset device, open Settings › Compass Pro and tap Restore purchases while signed in with the same Google account. Purchases on Google Play and on Apple’s App Store are separate.

4. Navigation Aid Only

Compass is a navigation aid, not a replacement for a map, proper planning or your own judgement. Please read this section carefully.

• Readings can be wrong. Headings depend on your device’s magnetic sensor and its calibration, and can be thrown off by metal, magnets, phone cases, vehicles and electronics nearby. Positions, distances, bearings, speed and altitude depend on GPS reception, which can be poor or unavailable under tree cover, in canyons, between buildings and indoors. Sun and moon times, declination and coordinate conversions are calculated estimates.
• Way Back and Find My Car work on a best-effort basis. They point to the start or parking spot that your device recorded. Recording can stop or lose accuracy if the battery runs out, the system stops the app, location access is turned off or the GPS signal is weak, and the arrow can be off by tens of metres or more. Street addresses for parking spots come from your device’s address service and may be inaccurate.
• Not for life-critical navigation. Do not use the app as your only means of navigation where an error could lead to injury, loss of life or damage, including in aviation, at sea, in mountains, deserts or other remote terrain, or in bad weather. Carry a map and a separate compass where it matters, check your route, keep your phone charged, and tell someone where you are going.
• Emergencies. Compass does not contact emergency services. The SOS card only helps you share your location yourself, for example by text message, and depends on your phone having a signal. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.
• Stay aware. Watch where you are going, and do not use the app while driving.

5. Your Data

Your waypoints, trails, parking spots and photos are stored on your device. We do not receive a copy, so we cannot recover them if they are deleted or your device is lost; use Settings › Backup & restore to keep your own backup. Files you export or share go where you choose. How the app handles data, including ads and analytics, is described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the app to break the law or anyone else’s rights; not to enter private or restricted land without permission; not to copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent or sublicense the app; not to reverse engineer or decompile it except where the law allows; not to interfere with its ads, purchases, licensing or security; and not to click ads fraudulently or use automated means to generate ad views.

7. Intellectual Property

The app and its name, icon, design, text, graphics and code belong to NextOne Labs LLC or its licensors and are protected by law. These terms give you no rights to them other than the licence in section 1. Map tiles, map data and other third-party content belong to their owners.

8. Other Services

The app relies on services provided by others, including Google Play (downloads and purchases), Google Play services (location and the review prompt), the Google Maps SDK (map tiles), Liftoff (ads in the free version), Google Firebase Analytics and your device’s address lookup service. Their own terms and policies apply to those services, and we are not responsible for their availability or content.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the app is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted or error-free, that its readings will be accurate, or that it will work on every device.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, NextOne Labs LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits or property, or any personal injury, arising out of or relating to your use of the app or your reliance on its readings. Our total liability for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid for the app in the 12 months before the claim. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you; nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection laws that cannot be waived.

11. Ending These Terms

You can stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it; remember to cancel any subscription in Google Play. We may suspend or end your licence if you seriously or repeatedly break these terms. We may change the app or its features, or stop offering it; existing subscriptions are then handled under Google Play’s policies.

12. Governing Law and Disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in the state or federal courts located in California. If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom or another country whose laws give you the right to bring claims in your local courts or the protection of mandatory local consumer law, nothing in these terms takes those rights away. Please contact us first; most problems can be solved quickly.

13. General

These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about the app. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. If we don’t enforce a term right away, we don’t give up the right to do so later. Google is not a party to these terms and is not responsible for the app.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. We will post the new version on this page with a new effective date and, if a change is significant, let you know in the app. If you keep using the app after a change takes effect, you accept the updated terms.
