  • IPhone 4, Flip leather case and the 'Compass' app..just some info

    Hello Members, and anyone new to the iPhone 4 with a 'Flip' type case that has a magnetic clasp.
    I had just got my new Iphone 4, and after fully updating it to iOS 4.1, I'd successfully managed to fix the screen protector that came with the all 'leather' flip case, and proceeded to slide the Iphone into it's new luxury coat closing it securely.
    Leaving it while, and then coming back to my Iphone, I started to explore the device and went straight for the 'compass' app, just to see it working....
    I notice it wasn't operating correctly, the app would either be really difficult to calibrate, and when it did, the pointer would not be stable and jerked around a lot.
    Anyway...I found the 'flip' case to have been a bad choice purely because of a design flaw, see the phone kept wanting to slide out as I would use it, so off I went to buy another one.
    I settled for one which was made of plastic, it was a black 'enclosure' type and even included the screen protector built into it, so no having to mess about with sticky thin films either..great, just snap the two half's together...job done!
    Again, back at home and in the same location, I again started to explore the iPhone going from browser to app, and again fell back onto the 'compass' application, only this time it worked flawlessly, no having to 'calibrate' and re-calibrate, no jerking from the pointer, it worked smoothly and faultlessly, and then it had occurred to me as to why this might be.....?
    The Iphone's directional tech is influenced by magnetic fields, regardless of whether it's 'geographic' north or 'magnetic' north, and was being influenced by the magnet that was contained in the clasp of the leather 'flip' case, I new this could only be the possible reasoning, as I'd been trying to get the 'app' to work all the time even when I'd crossed my local park while still in the 'flip' case on my way to the store, with always the same bad results, it was only when the Iphone was in it's new case did the compass app work correctly.
    So, just a consideration to any new users of the iPhone 4, that's using a case that's got any kind of magnet, and that's having the same issues that I suffered, remember to 'calibrate' and try the 'compass' application out of these type's of case's before thinking there's a software problem, or fault with your Iphone4.
    Kind regards
    Livio

    Hi Jack,
    Let me help explain what tags we have presently that provides details about webapp A and B.  It seems you might be slightly confused on the purpose of some of these tags and what they intend to output.
    Here's a screen cast of an example located on my test site: http://test0101.testsuite.biz/test/test1
    This is pretty much how it'll work based on the tags that we have available at this stage.  If you are looking to set something up a bit differently let us know so we can possibly help you further. 
    In the meanwhile, many of these tags where just recently introduced in our March release.  More details under "web app improvements".

    Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

  • Can I remove the compass app?

    The golfing powers that be have determined we can no longer use our Golf GPS apps in competition because Apple have a pre-installed compass on the phone. Hopefully if the golfers generate enough fuss about this then Apple will release a software update that allows its removal. Its not rocket science Apple... but it is already causing a major talking point.

    Removing the compass app would not stop the compass working in Golf GPS apps. The compass is a hardware feature with software to view its output. The phone needs to know which way it is pointing to provide an accurate GPS view.

  • The Compass App won't allow True North anymore

    When my iPhone 4 had iOS 4 last month, I could select True North or Magnetic North in the Compass App.
    I'm on iOS 5 now, and am just now realizing that I can no longer switch to True North anymore in the Compass App because it is greyed out.
    Does this point to a problem with the accelerometer in my iPhone??

  • Why is the "compass" app located in "newsstand" folder?

    Hi....
    Just wondering why the compass app is located in the newsstand folder on my iphone 4S?
    Initially the compass app was on the main screen, but after I backed it up from my old ipod touch, it then appeared in the newsstand folder.
    I've tried moving it on the iphone, also via my Mac when it's connected, but it won't let me move it.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you.

    Ah,
    It seems I'm not alone here then.

  • HT4623 I hit update on my phone for the new software update and now on my homescreen it has the usb plug with the arrow pointed up and the Itunes app.

    I went to do software update on my Iphone 4s. When it restarted the phone the usb plug, arrow button pointing up and the Itunes app appeared on my screen. It seems my phone crapped out on me. Is there anyway to recover my information. I also plugged it into my laptop and opened itunes and it says phone needs to recovery but if I hit yes I will lose all my data. Can anyone please help me?
    Thank you.

    I attempted to do that and it was unable to find my iphone for some reason. I'm going to take it to the apple store tomorrow. Thanks for your help.
    Thanks.

  • Where is the Clock App

    Am I suffering from domestic blindness???
    Where is the clock App. More than ever I could use this right now as I am in Ohio and my wife is in Sydney, Australia.
    Did Apple forget to include this, seems very odd that it doesn't exist.

    You can use Safari to find the time for anyplace in the world. In the Google search bar you type:
    What time is it in London?
    What time is it in Washington D.C.? etc...etc...ect...
    Or you can use this web site:
    http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/difference.html?p1=2
    I know it doesn't look fancy or replaces the snooze alarm. It does tell the time.

  • Why isn't the compass app for iOS 7 on my iPod touch 5?

    Updated my iPod touch to iOS 7.03, but I don't see the compass app? It says it's built in on the apple website.

    Can you find it in the app store? I found others of the 'built in' apps for download. Such as iMovie, Remote, AirPort utility etc.
    'Built in' may be the wrong term for them to use.

  • Where is the Email app in FF os. Mac-user OSX 10.10.1 mac mail.

    I installed the add-on Encrypted Communication on my iMac OSX 10.10.1. Apple Mail is my mail-app. Kensington track ball my mouse.
    This combination does not work together. Right click in the textarea has no effect. Searching for information pointed to the Mail app in Firefox OS. But this app is not available.
    What to do?
    Thanks,
    Jan Geenen

    Firefox OS isn't the same as the Firefox web browser, which doesn't have a "mail app".

  • How do i delete the compass app

    how do I deletel tho compass app.

    There is an app that I use on the phone that measures distance whilst playing golf.
    The powers that be have decided that because the phone has a compass I cannot use the golf app in competition. Quite what difference it makes knowing which way I am facing relative to a compass is beyond me, but there you go, the people that make the rules of golf are somewhat archaic.
    With that iin mind I'm wondering whether there is a way of rendering the compass unuseable if it cant be removed?
