Face 15.6° from true north, i.e. toward the North-northeast. Use a compass — or the app's live qibla compass — to line it up.

This bearing is from TRUE (geographic) north. A phone's compass points to magnetic north, which differs by a few degrees depending on location — the app's qibla compass corrects for this automatically. To be sure, check against your local mosque's mihrab.
