About

About trulycompass.com

trulycompass.com is a comprehensive suite of free, browser-based navigation and astronomical tools. We believe that essential utilities like a compass, sun tracker, and prayer time calculator should be accessible to anyone with a web browser — no app downloads, no installations, no sign-ups required.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide accurate, privacy-first digital tools that work on any device. Every tool on this website runs entirely in your browser. Your location data never touches our servers — all calculations happen locally on your device. This commitment to privacy sets us apart from traditional apps that require accounts and data sharing.

What We Offer

Real-time magnetic heading using your device's built-in magnetometer. Features bearing pinning, turn guidance, and calibration support.

☀ Sun & Moon Tracking

📍 GPS & Navigation

Why Browser-Based?

Modern web browsers are incredibly powerful. With APIs like the Generic Sensor API, Geolocation API, and WebGL, we can build sophisticated tools that once required native apps. By staying browser-based, we eliminate installation friction, ensure cross-platform compatibility (iOS, Android, Windows, Mac), and keep your data private. There is no app store to visit, no permissions to grant beyond what your browser already offers.

Our Values

  • 🔒 Privacy First — All computations happen client-side. Zero data collection, zero server storage.
  • 🌐 Universal Access — Works on any device with a modern browser. No app store, no installation.
  • 💯 Completely Free — No premium tiers, no hidden costs, no paywalls. All tools are free forever.
