Have you tried using the Compass that comes with the I 5S? It actually is quite 
accessible, and gives you the direction you're facing in terms of degrees as 
well as north south east west etc.
Give it a try

Hello, 
I have an iPhone 5S which sits in a very nice protective case but alas the 
magnetic clasp on the case stops the built in compass from working. Where ever 
I face it always says “East”, even after recalibration. the compass works fine 
when the phone is out of the case. 

I am very reluctant to go for walks with the phone outside its protective case, 
but I do find the compass very handy when lost. 

I therefore wonder if there is an App which uses GPS to determine direction. 
When lost I am happy to walk a short distance in some direction and would like 
the App to tell me which direction I had walked in. Does anyone know of such a 
VoiceOver accessible App?

Alternatively does anyone know of a good iPhone 5S protective case which does 
not have a magnetic clasp?

Many thanks for any help.
