FAQs:

Q- Why isn't compass needle moving or working correctly?

A- You may need to calibrate the compass on your device (See: https://support.google.com/maps/answer/6145351). Restarting your device may help as well. If calibrating and restarting doesn't fix the issue please go to settings (gear icon above and right of the large compass) and check "Show text directions instead of needle". Note: A user reported this app helped them get their compass working: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eclipsim.gpsstatus2

Q- I don't have a Trainer Account or I use my Google Account how can I use this app?

A- Create a new Trainer Account for this app. You can still use your Google Account in the other app while using a Trainer Account in this app.

Q- If I use a brand new account that is level 1 will the scanner be able to find all the Pokemon that my higher level account can see?

A- Yes, from everything I've seen so far a level 1 account will find all the same Pokemon a higher level account can find. Please email me at CompassForPokemon@gmail.com if there's evidence of this being incorrect.

Q- What if I don't trust this app to connect to my Trainer Account?

A- Regardless of whether you trust this app or not it is recommended you create a new Trainer Account that you don't care about for using in this app. You can use the throw away account on the Compass app while you use your main account on the Pokemon app.

Q- Why am getting "Authentication failed - Servers may be down" when I try to login?

A- Verify or try the following:
1) Make sure you are using a Trainer Account and not a Google Account.
2) Make sure your are typing in the correct user name and password.
3) "Verify your email" for your new Trainer Account. You should have got an email to do this after you created the account.
4) Login to the Pokemon app with the new Trainer Account you created, catch a starter Pokemon, login to the Compass App with the new Trainer Account, logout of the Pokemon app, and login to the Pokemon app with your main account.

Q- The app finishes several scans, but doesn't find anything. How do I fix this?

A- Try restarting your device.
