I would love to be able to see the current coordinates and altitude on the compass screen. (And long press to copy them). I feel like this feature really belongs in a compass app.

Somewhat unrelated, but I came here because of the excellent compass app by R. Apps (has been talked about here before) has been bought by some shady company, which now charges 15 euro a week for the ad-free version. I loved that app, I feel like I can only trust open source from now on.

I'm currently not sure if I want to include this feature.
One implication with this location feature is that tracking the location drains a lot of battery.
Currently the app only requests the location once when the user wants to use the true north functionality. And then the location does not have to be accurate.
But maybe I will revisit this issue at a later point in time.

As always I can reccomend you the Trail Sense app https://github.com/kylecorry31/Trail-Sense . It includes a compass, location and many more features and is open source.
