hey guys it's brandon minimun from pocket now calm and this is a look at the digital compass application on the HTC hd2 this is especially helpful if you're in the woods or if you're in a city and you're trying to get in a certain direction and you want your device to sort of help you position yourself so that you're walking in the right direction so the way that it works and that you can see right now that it's active so I can turn my body and it will adjust the heading you press set destination and it will bring up a map it will actually be using google maps and from here you can pinch to zoom to get closer in on this particular area and you tap and hold wherever you want to go and I want to go right here and it says gps locating so we're going to go outside and see how this will all sort of come together ok so maybe difficult to see but there is a green dot on the screen and I need to walk in the direction of the green dot and if it's windy out here sorry about that and I'm just going to keep walking and walking until I get to my destination and I know it's hard to see out here but as you get closer to your destination you get a little countdown so right now I am point 01 kilometers away so I'm gonna keep walking and after following the green dot I've made it 2-0 which means i am at my destination so pretty cool and quite helpful if you're trying to find your way that's it for now
