Compass Update — Gaming, Branding & Accounts
Gaming Section
Explore Shortcuts
The Enter a World, Studios & Publishers, ROM Hacks, Explore by Launcher, Updates & Events, and Explore the Charts shortcuts at the top of the Explore page now take you directly to their respective sections, even when they are further down the page
Add Multiple Local Games at Once
You can now select multiple .exe files when adding local games, with each file added as a separate game in your library
Playnite Integration
If you use Playnite, you can now browse your entire Playnite library inside Compass, including games you own on Epic Games, EA app, GOG, Ubisoft Connect, and Xbox, even if they are not installed
- Go to Library → All Games → Playnite
- Click Add the extension to Playnite, then restart Playnite once
- Installed games can be launched directly from Compass, while uninstalled games have an Install in Playnite button
- Games already recognized by Compass through Steam or other launchers will not appear twice
- Portable Playnite installations are also supported by selecting the Playnite folder
The extension only reads your library and does not modify anything in Playnite
Epic Games & EA app
The Epic Games and EA app filters in your library now include games from Playnite for the respective store, alongside games installed on your system
Steam Improvements
- Uninstall via Steam: A new button is available on installed game pages to uninstall games, with Steam handling the confirmation
- Friends: See who's online, who's playing, and what they're currently playing
- Wishlist: Browse your Steam Wishlist and save all its games to your saved games with one click
Steam Friends and Wishlist require linking your Steam account from the library
Missing Game Logos
We're still working on fixing missing logos on some game pages. If a game is missing its logo, let us know its name
Compass Branding Refresh
The visual rebranding of Compass is complete, with the compass logo now featured throughout the app
App Icons
All 17 preset icons, including Liquid Glass, Watercolor, Pixel, Blueprint, Anime Ink, and more, have been redesigned with the compass while preserving each icon's unique style
Theme Previews
All theme previews, including Dracula, Nord, Royal, Velvet, and more, now display the Compass logo and name using each theme's font
Animations & Screens
The loader, addon installation screen, Watch Together waiting screen, Voyage, and screensaver featuring the cat on the boat have all been updated to match the new branding
Guides & Tutorials
The TMDB setup guide and other tutorial images have been updated
OG Badge
The OG badge now has its own artwork, featuring an orange medal with a star. It is already live and visible on profiles
Note: If you previously selected a preset app icon, select it again in Settings to get the updated version
The app's visual updates will arrive with the next release, while the OG badge is already available
Compass Account Improvements
Add an Email to Your Account
You can now add an email address to your Compass account from:
Settings → Account → Compass account → Email
- Enter your email address and open the confirmation link
- To change your email, click Change and enter the new address
- Your old email remains active until you confirm the new one
Password Reset by Email
You can now reset your password using your email instead of relying only on your recovery key
On the sign-in screen, select:
Forgot password → Reset by email
30-Day Email Confirmation Deadline
Existing accounts have 30 days to confirm an email address. Compass will remind you and display the exact deadline
If the deadline passes without confirmation, publishing, comments, ratings, friends, and sync will be paused until you confirm your email
Watching content is never affected
New accounts will be asked to add an email during registration
Link Your Discord Account
You can now link your Compass account to Discord from the same account page and automatically join the Compass Discord server
