Hust using the #CMP#tag on a compass point arrow the arros moves to the left more than you do and tto the right the same way.
I would expect it to always point North.
Fair enough, if it is the direction you are facing, what is the formula to make it point North?

The Compass on your NAV2 works fine if I test it on my Phone.
So sorry I can not test it on my Watch.
SAMSUNG watches do not have a Magnetometer.
Check this out.

A little test for you .
Why we have to Add Minus??
You may want to try Calibrate your Magnetometer.
Wave the watch about in a figure of 8 as hard as you can without putting your shoulder out of joint.

I have being doing tests so I can make a clear answer . Getting increasingly dyslexic with age it is bit confusing for me.
But Ithink it is like this.
Without the negative the pointer works like a guage indicating the angle from Zero ( 12 oclock )
However including the Minus allows the pointer to stay pointing North or South regardles of the position of the face.
All magic really.
I reallt struggled with that as I have no sensor on my watch.
But I am pleased to say the compass simulates nicely on my phone but needs Calibrating now and again.
Test test test when you can.
Good to have a little compass about as well.
