you to your destination with a graphic compass and a
bearing pointer.

Bearing
Pointer
When navigating, the Compass Page provides
navigation data and directions. It uses a graphic
compass ring, a bearing/course pointer, and digital
data fields to show information, such as current speed,
distance to the next point on the route, and estimated
arrival time.
The rotating compass ring indicates the direction you
are heading. The Bearing/Course Pointer indicates
the direction (bearing) to your destination, relative
to your current heading direction. The compass ring
and bearing pointer work independently to show
your direction of movement and the direction to your
destination. You can choose a Bearing Pointer or
Course Pointer for guidance.
