Description
You know where you are and where you want to go, but which way should you start walking? Docchi Navi helps you check which way you're facing. The map rotates with your phone, while your location arrow always points to the top of the screen. Match the streets on the map with those in front of you, without rotating the map in your head. Focused on location and orientation, it works alongside your usual map app. Available on iOS and Android in Japanese and English.
