Equip: Go to your inventory, select Gadgets, and equip the compass you need.

Activation: Use the compass in-game. It will emit a beam pointing towards the nearest chest within range.

Cooldown:

If a chest is detected: 30-second cooldown.

Tips for Effective Use Gameplay Tips

Systematic Exploration: Use them in areas you've explored to ensure you haven't missed any chests.

Combine with Exploration: Use alongside Elemental Sight or other exploration aids for a more comprehensive search.

Be Patient: Sometimes the beam might point through walls or floors; you might need to find a way around or through.

Benefits

Efficient Exploration: They reduce the time spent searching for chests, making your exploration sessions more productive.

Resource Gathering: Chests contain materials, mora, and sometimes primogems, enhancing your gameplay.

Limitations

Region Specific: They only work in their respective regions.

Detection Limits: The compass won't point towards chests beyond certain barriers or in domains you haven't unlocked.

Additional Information

Game Mechanics: These compasses reflect Genshin Impact's focus on exploration as a core gameplay element, rewarding thorough adventurers.

Player Tips: Community feedback often highlights using these tools for systematic chest hunting, especially in high-altitude areas or complex terrains where chests might be hidden from view.

Note: If there are indeed new items with similar functions introduced in a future update, their information would be updated accordingly in game news or patches. However, as of my last update, the Anemo and Geo Treasure Compasses are well-established tools in Genshin Impact's exploration kit.
