Yes. It uses your GPS coordinates and the spherical great-circle bearing formula to calculate the precise direction toward the Kaaba (21.4225°N, 39.8262°E). On modern smartphones in open areas, accuracy is typically within 2–5 degrees.

Yes. The calculation uses the great-circle bearing — the shortest path across Earth's surface — which is the method recommended by Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) and used by all major Qibla applications.
The Qibla (القبلة — "the direction") is the direction all Muslims face during the five daily prayers (Salah). It points toward the Kaaba, the cube-shaped structure at the heart of Masjid al-Haram in Mecca, Saudi Arabia — located at 21.4225°N, 39.8262°E.
Historically, scholars used celestial navigation — stars, sunrise and sunset positions, and the direction of prevailing winds — to determine Qibla. Today, GPS and digital magnetometers make it possible to get a precise bearing from anywhere on Earth within seconds, directly in your phone's browser.
