This app is a compass that supports the custom of "Ehomaki" in Japan.
In Japan, it is customary to eat "extremely thick maki sushi" called "Ehomaki" at the event called "Setsubun" on February 3rd every year to celebrate the change of seasons.
The method is to turn to the direction called "Eho", which is decided every year, make a wish, and if you can eat to the end silently, your wish will come true. "
On February 3rd, a large amount of "Ehomaki" will be sold at grocery stores all over Japan.
At this time, it is a compass that allows you to confirm "Eho".
(Every year automatically displays the ehomaki of the year)
However, for those who forget to buy "Ehomaki" or find it troublesome to go to buy, we have prepared a special function.
This "Virtual Ehomaki" allows you to eat "Ehomaki" on the screen without buying "Ehomaki".
Please try it for people other than Japan.
You can choose from 9 types of "Ehomaki".
Will this alone make my wish come true? May be excellent

■ In addition to February 3rd, Setsubun includes summer Setsubun August and autumn Setsubun November.
The compass app works with a magnetic sensor.
It may not function properly when using a case with a magnet or when there are objects that generate magnetism such as smartphones, mobile batteries, and outlets for each battery.
Please use it in a state where there is nothing that generates magnetism.
Some models do not have a gyro sensor / magnetic sensor. The compass does not work with that model, so please check with your dealer.
If you feel that the orientation is off, calibrate the magnetic sensor.
The magnetic sensor can be adjusted by turning the smartphone in a figure eight, so please try it.
