The compas direction on the elevation circle is wrong
-
Just look at the pictures in this thread made by Jörgen!
@white.mouse Sorry, what pictures in which thread?

When one navigates with the app one sees the altitude with a compass indication around the circle. These red segment
indicators should show the direction that one is traveling In fact the indicator correctly indicates north and south but east and west is backwards. While traveling east the red bar indicator shows west. In other words with I travel west the red indicator should be on the left. That is not the case now. I am using an iPhone 14 pro max with revision 5.2.0 - 473. -

Ok, thanks to all!
I guess I needed a mental adjustment to understand that the red segment just says where the North is in relation to the direction I am traveling (to my nose... )
That said, please confirm that the following pictures show the expected behavior of the Red segment. My map is oriented NORTH, so you can easily see in which direction I am moving. Thank you!

To me that makes no sense at all. But then again I never use North up.
Something tells me in top of that it only works when using the dynamic camera view but I'm nooit shureHonda Goldwing GL1500,

I just verrified it on a ride this morning. In the Dynamic mode the Blue Arrow in the bottom right acts as a compass too, and it coinsides with the Red segment behavior.

Agree that it looks strange in the north up view.
The red sections points to where north is.
Compared to your physical orientation, not the map on your screen.@Corjan-Meijerink said:

In north up mode should the red section on the compass not always be at the top & not change?BlackView BV7100, Android 12

I think in north-up map orientation, the red segment should simply disappear, as it is not useful
