1) does it have to be .apk file to use compass with phonegap on adroid or android browser will be fine?
2) are there any special consideration for using phonegap with appery (although I am new to phonegap).

Hello,

Yes to use/test PhoneGap the app needs to be installed on the device (.apk and .ipa depending on the device).

PhoneGap - it is like wrapper that takes your HTML/CSS/JS web app and makes it as a native app, also it makes possible to use native device features like camera, accelerometer, geolocation e.t.c.
