They're to assist your brain with re-calibration when you find yourself in an unfamiliar urban environment.

They're not intended to navigate your way through the Brooks Range or Pacific fugking Ocean.

As stated ,iPhone versions are magnetized and should be used accordingly.

The only thing I do not trust is the elevation it can change by up to 20 feet sitting on my desk.
