'Show view' and 'rotate map' work abnormal under navigation mode.
Solved
Such as ' show view ' only face a direction on the map, no matter what you do.

The same problem 
Hi Feng Tao, navigation mode overrides the rotation setting so that the driver is shown the rotation or show view always in the direction of the ride - it's for safety reasons.

Good day Feng,
you are correct if we talk about "Show view" feature. In case you enable navigation in Locus, then orientation for map and also angle visible in "Show view" feature is defined by a route you are using for navigation.
Agree that this should be improved, so done. In next version, "show view" should always display real measured orientation of device no matter if navigation is active or not. Better? Next version is planned on this week, so let me know if it will works correctly. Thanks

Hi, I'm using the 3.16.2 version of the app on a Nexus 6P running Android 6.0. Generally love the app but am confounded by the Rotate Map function : If I press the button before using the map it clearly unlocks it and allows rotation. What I find disappointing is that the map doesn't orient for the direction of travel. It really should do what Google Maps does when you're navigating : the map swings around so that the route lines up with your direction of travel and does so until the destination. That's not happening with this app. Seems like a no brainer. Hope you can sort it out soon,
Paul

Hi Paul,
strange, in my Locus the map rotation works exactly as you wish - it rotates in the direction of movement, i.e. in the direction my device is pointing at. When the rotation is off, the map is oriented northward, i.e. the North is is up. Can you describe please how exactly "your" rotation works?
