Using digital inclinometer app and compass to roughly polar align Star Adventurer

Hi,

I am wanting to do a rough alignment of a SkyWatcher Star Adventurer using a compass and digital inclinometer app on the ipad and am not sure of what exactly to do. From what I have read I use the compass (from 3 metres away to not put out the compass) to point the Star Adventurer to true South, then use the digital inclinometer to more accurately input my current latitude on the tracker. I'm not sure of exactly how to use an inclinometer to do this and was wondering if anyone could guide me through exactly what to do? Thanks if anyone could help.
