Compass status

[iPa64]

Hi,
I have a doubt!
On the overall status page, my compas status is "normal" but on the left there a key "Calibrate".
Is this just a shortcut to the calibrate function or it advice me to calibrate ?

I have the doubt because on the web you can find two differents printscreen of it, "Calibrate" or "Details"
Thanks

Shortcut.
The alternative is a big red "caibration required".

Wot Kilroy said.
Many people believe that it is telling them to calibrate but they are wrong.

Older versions of DJI GO used to always show the "Calibrate" option in the Aircraft Status section. You'll now only see that option when DJI GO thinks you need to calibrate. If you still want to calibrate the compass anyhow, it must be done here:

I partially disagree with people saying there's no need to calibrate unless warned.
My experience tells me that even when compass lines appear as a small green dot, if one has moved from a location to another (and doesn't recalibrate), there is often an absolute error of several meters, if checked on the map.
Calibrating, the error is reduced to less than one meter.
If take off and landing position are the same, practically speaking, I think nothing changes.
