It would be a good addition to the Fitbit Blaze is they added a compass application especially if you are an avid camper like me.

I agree that it would be nice but the Blaze doesn't have a sensor that could allow for this. It has:

 

 A MEMS 3-axis accelerometer, which tracks your motion patterns.
 An altimeter, which tracks altitude changes.
 An optical heart rate tracker
 Ambient light sensor

 

It would also need a magnetometer to provide the compass function. Perhaps a future fitbit model will provide for this.
