    Hey Michael.

    Sorry. But, we do not have the option/feature of ading the compass as a data field for now. I will pass this on as a feature request to the product team.

    Thanks.

    This feature would be great when bikepacking. Hope it comes along soon.

    I made this request a long time ago. Now, I make it again. Should not be that difficult to create a data field called HEADING.

    This would need to incorporated into the software algorithm for the compass heading data field. There is a compass on the map so I believe you have the data. 

    HH has fulfilled almost all of my requests, but this one hangs out there.

    +1 another bump here, sometimes i don't need to see the map and just want the data field "HEADING" with my power, cadence, speed etc. I should've searched here rather than going through every data field listing with frustration...

    Another +1 here. I've had the Heading field on other computers and find it very desirable. Please include it on the Karoo 2.

    edit: seems I was +1'ing a duplicate of https://support.hammerhead.io/hc/en-us/community/posts/360037644734-No-Compass-Sensor-data-fields, which has already been addressed by support.

    +1 as well. It's a pain to switch to the map view any time I want to know my heading.

    With my Wahoo Elemnt Bolt I could not display many data fields, as the screen was tiny. Compass direction was one of the fields I always used, I would love to have this data field also on the K2!

    +1 As a new Karoo user I'm surprised this isn't available. The data must be there as the map screen has a compass so shouldn't be a leap to add a NEWS field as an option.

    +1 for this also. Used it all the time with my Elemnt Bolt and very much missed now. Switching to the map screen and working out bearing from the compass needle isn’t as good as a quick glance to a data field!
