[QUOTE="Cr00zng, post: 1869492, member: 318059"] After going through the new iPhone 12 Pro, I discovered that the compass does not work: [ATTACH type="full"]32957[/ATTACH] The GPS coordinates do change, location and elevation are correct. It's the needle in the compass that is stuck in the magnetic North position and does not move with the iPhone's move. Location services are enabled and don't have a case yet. The 12 Mini next to the 12 Pro has the needle moving based on the movement of the iPhone. Sensor Kinetic app shows the correct magnetic North and moves as the iPhone is moved: [ATTACH type="full"]32958[/ATTACH] Sensor Kinetic indicates that the hardware works just fine and as such, the issue is probably in the software. I haven't find any settings to make the needle move; is there some settings somewhere, that would free up the needle on the compass? If there's none... Is it time to see a "Genius", or just file a bug report with Apple? I don't like either of them, but after the "Do Not Disturb While Driving" (DNDWD) feature has never worked on my old iPhone 8 Plus, I am not going to wait. Come to think of it, I haven't tested the DNDWD feature yet on the 12 Pro, gotta go...:wink:rofl [/QUOTE]
