[General] How to stop Google maps from tilting in navigation?


Ah. Well I don't think you can do an top-down, heading-up mode. Tapping on the compass will switch between the 3D heading-up view and an overhead North-up mode though.

3D heading-up is pretty standard for GPS systems. Tilting the map allows you to see further ahead on your route for upcoming turns, while allowing the car's location to be "zoomed" in for more detail on the crossroads and stuff that are near your current location.

That being said, I'm sure a top-down, heading-up view would be used by a few people. There are probably other apps out there that would offer this.
