Does a neodymium magnet harm an Iphone?
I tried gluing a magnet on my phone case and I experienced some problems with Compass app.Except the compass effect is it safe to use it for a longer time?

You'll break the electronic compass but other than that no harm.

What where you thinking when trying this and why do you need such a strong magnet on a phone?
Even if it is just the compass that is stuffed, strong magnets and electronics are not to be mixed.
Also consider other things near your phone like credit cards ;)

Phones are only dangerous for the credit cards that have a magnetic strip.The other wireless ones have a small antenna and a phone doesn't effect to it.Thanks for your answer.
