Default Villages GPS App

Is there a way to orient the map to north up? It drives me crazy with the map spinning around, no way to know what direction I’m heading. I would pay to have it oriented to north up.

It's a GPS system not a map. It will point in whatever direction you're moving in. If you are driving east, then "up" will be east. Up is "ahead of you." Down is "behind you." Right is "to the right of you" and left is "to the left of you."

It takes some getting used to. I resisted for months, but I finally gave in and practiced a few times. Now, I find myself confused as to how I managed without it!

Put a simple compass on your windshield.
