The direction of travel arrow shows me heading in the wrong direction

The direction of travel arrow shows me heading in the wrong direction, even when in compatibility mode. This is especially an issue in the forest, particularly on a slow, technical route.

Thanks,
Michelle

Hi,

please try calibrating your phone compass, see https://docs.locusmap.app/doku.php?id=manual:faq:how_to_calibrate_compass

Thanks for your reply. The course and the bearing line were completely different. I have a Tasker alert that tells me if my magnetometer accuracy is low and the range of the reading, but that seemed okay. It seems to mainly happen in a forest its ok in open mountain
