Anybody with an iPhone 5S see the problem? My iPhone 5 is dead level on when I put it on a known-level surface in portrait, landscape format, or flush flat - well, to within 1 degree (I don't get 1/2 degrees on the iPhone 5)
You are required to calibrate it by spinning the "ball" around prior to using it though.
- arrrg 13y ago5S, 3° off on a flat surface.
- ghshephard 13y agoInteresting - Did you run the calibration process? (Spin the little virtual ball in the "roulette" wheel)
- arrrg 13y agoYou pretty much have to, every time you launch the built-in compass app. I feel this process is mostly for the compass, not the level. The 3° are consistent, across multiple tries for several days. I think there will have to be a software fix. Seems like their calibration process in the factory was off or something. No big deal but annoying.
- panacea 13y agoMaybe you're 'holding it properly' or aren't trying to get clicks for heralding 'sensorgate'... or maybe this is another fucking stupid storm in a teacup. A quick rinse and a new teabag usually sorts it out.
