After watching @Anonymous's Locations, Maps, Distance and Compass Bearing in PowerApps YouTube video, I was inspired to try and make a compass-style app that would rotate the heading and map to reflect the user's orientation. With some further inspiration from @h-nagao's LOGO app, I took a crack at it and thought I would share the results. (A link to the exported app is at the bottom of this post.)
This is a rough attempt and I didn't do much to polish it, so keep that in mind. Also, a Bing Maps API key is needed to use the map portion of this app but the compass and the general idea should be there without the maps. (There is a label named BingMapsKey where the key can be entered in the Text property.)
Sample picture
Some explanation: the user can enter a set of lat/long coordinates to put a pin and subsequent waypoint on the circular map at the top. A small, rectangular view of the destination shows below that with some details to the right. There is a zoom feature for the circular map, utilized but the slider control at the bottom. Also, there is a button to set the current lat/long. This is set at the initial opening of the app in the OnVisible section but the button allows the user to reset it at will. I initially had it grab the current lat/long straight from the device but I figured that would burn through too many map views so I set those parameters as variables instead.
If anyone is interested in more info on the elements involved, I would be happy to follow up/share what I did, particularly the geometry involved. And again huge props to @Anonymous and @h-nagao!
