Yes! It works perfectly. Exactly what I was looking for. I may look into the config files but map orientation will probably be enough for me. I was begining to think that maybe no developper bothered to implement the GPS orientation trick these days. Thank you very much.

Hi, I'm back to geaocaching with my young son after a long pause. I tried the Geocaching Android app which is fine, unless for the map that doesn't rotate to show me the right direction. Turns out my new phone doesn't have a compass. I know this will make using most augmented reality apps impossible but would not have thought it problematic for a geocaching app. A few years ago, I strated geocaching with a cheap Garmin GPS that derived direction from GPS coordinates and it worked perfectly well. All you add to do was walking straight ahead a few meters and the GPS pointed the right direction. The Geocaching app doesn't seem able to do that trick, nor do Google Maps. Do someone know an Android GPS app that is able to do that? For now, the old Garmin is back. Maybe I'll try using a compass to turn my phone in the right direction too, but I would be quite happy to find an app that works like the Gamin (with all the eye candy that modern systems can add to it, like sky view or maps). Thanks in advance for any recommandation.
