Community Experience

Compass uses approved reports only when they match the question, location and setup.

Do you use a different product or approach? Share the details that worked, what did not, and any useful photos. Reports are reviewed before they can influence another answer.

Emergency Mode

Your immediate safety comes first.

If anyone is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services now.

Do not wait for Compass or rely on this website for emergency response.

Call 911

What is happening?

Move away from immediate danger if you can do so safely.
Call emergency services and clearly describe what happened.
Share your exact location, road, trail, campsite or GPS coordinates.
Follow the dispatcher’s instructions and avoid taking unnecessary risks.

Share location for this emergency

Compass needs your permission to pinpoint you. Without it, nearby hospitals, responders and park contacts cannot be localized accurately.

Your location has not been shared.

Audible SOS Signal

Plays the Morse pattern ••• ——— •••. This signal does not contact emergency services.

What to tell the 911 operator

“I have an emergency. I need help. My location is not yet available.”

Nearest hospitalAsk the dispatcher for the safest appropriate facility

Park operatorUse the official park contact when it is already known

Police / fireCall 911 for immediate danger

Offline Survival Mode

Stay calm. Compass will help you reason through this.

First, keep trying to reach professional help.

This offline guide is general preparedness information—not rescue, medical diagnosis or a guarantee of safety. Use your judgment and do not take actions that increase danger.

Current location Location is not enabled. Enable location before losing service whenever possible.

Audible SOS Signal

Use only when an audible distress signal is appropriate. It does not contact rescuers.

What best describes the situation?

Immediate priorities

Stop, breathe and assess immediate hazards.
Try 911, text messaging, satellite SOS or another communication method.
Record your coordinates and conserve phone battery.
Stay visible and avoid unnecessary movement unless your location is immediately dangerous.

People and supplies

People Water available Food available Battery

Enter what you have. Compass will help inventory supplies without pretending it can calculate medical hydration needs offline.
