Loadstone will use the magnetic compass for the closest point function when
you're stationary. This means you can point the phone in a given direction
and get the closest point related to the direction the phone is pointing.
This doesn't happen when your moving thoe, at that point you may have the
phone in any position making use of the magnetic compass for that purpose
useless.

Again, while I have no iOS devices, something I specifically liked about old
loadstone was that it didn't use the magnetic compass as such, but, rather
worked on average movement directions - meant you didn't have to hold the
phone in a specific orientation/position for it to be able to guide you -
something I get irritated by with some of the android software I have played
around with.
Stay well

Hi
It would be nice if LS could use the magnetic compass in this case.
