 The button shown below can be tapped to toggle between ''GPS and Magnetic compass used'' and ''GPS only used''. Disabling of the magnetic compass will instead use the change of the GPS position to estimate the direction of your movement. This feature is not as precise as the magnetic compass but can be useful if you e.g. use the talking compass and want to store your phone in your pocket (no longer pointing into the walking direction).
+The second button shows the current orientation mode, which by default is automatically detected. The compass has to behave different depending on whether you hold your phone upright or flat. If desired you can switch it to either ''Flat''  or ''Upright'' manually by tapping this button.
+The figures below the buttons show the lateral orientation (''Device'', on the left) and orientation on x/y/z-axis (''Orientation'', on the right) of your device.
