Hello!


The Compass app is available only on Apple Watch Series 5. It works even when you don't have Wi-Fi or a cellular connection. So, you should have it.


Use the compass on Apple Watch Series 5


You will want to make sure to have the Compass installed on your paired iPhone.

Also want to make sure your iPhone and watch are up to date - iOS 13 and watchOS 6
