As for the specific person, I'm not entirely sure. I do know though that the first group of people to invent the compass were the Ancient Chinese.
No one knows. All we know is that the Chinese and Europeans helped to make the Chinese compass.
The magnetic compass was invented by the Chinese during the Qin Dynasty around 206 BC. The specific inventor's name is not known.
The compass was invented by the Chinese during the Han Dynasty around the 2nd century BC. It is often attributed to the inventor, Ma Jun.
The Chinese inventor who first created the compass is believed to be Shen Kuo, a polymath and statesman from the Song dynasty. However, the compass as we know it today was further developed and popularized by the Chinese explorer Zheng He during the Ming dynasty.
The man who invented the compass was Sinan. He was born in China.
Feng Shui was the inventor of the compass.I do not agree to that.Feng Shui was the name of the thing they used the compass for, not the person who invented the compass!

This is a common misconception. Back in those days compass was a colloqeulism for raging hard-on. So dear alberts father popped a nut out and then it hit him. I should be an inventor
The compass on a key-chain idea was invented many years ago. This invention is still used today by many people. Honestly, there is no "for sure" inventor of this, people just started doing it and this idea became more known.
No one is sure exactly when and who the compass was invented by. It was supposedly made in the 3rd century BCE though, and was made for the use of Feng Shui practitioners to "align" the forces of the earth to help them maintain balance in their lives, but later became an important navigational tool.
