Use the True Qibla bearing with a real compass (after adding local declination) or a mosque mihrab. Live phone compass is corrected for magnetic declination, but phone sensors can still drift — calibrate with a figure-8.

Accuracy: Bearing uses the standard great-circle formula to the Kaaba (21.4225°N, 39.8262°E). Math error is far below 0.1°. Remaining uncertainty comes from GPS position (± a few metres outdoors) and phone magnetometer noise — not from the Qibla calculation itself.

What is the Qibla?

The Qibla is the direction Muslims face in salah — toward the Kaaba in Makkah. It is the great-circle direction: the shortest path on the Earth’s surface.

True North is geographic north (used for the degree number). A magnetic compass points to Magnetic North; the difference is magnetic declination. This page shows the true bearing and corrects the live needle using estimated declination for your location.
