North = Up!
PLEASE, for the Love of God, give us a preference that will keep North pointing UP on the device! i practically can't use Waze (tho i REALLY want to) because it keep spinning around on me - drives me crazy - i grew up with paper maps & north was always "up" - having it spin to the direction i'm driving is driving me bonkers! :-)
aside from that, the app rocks!
Great thinking! The issue you raised has been addressed in a recent redesign. Hope you like it!

Agree. There are many cases where I want a north up navigation and it keeps going back to car-facing

Agreed - and this isn't just on restarting the app, as Craig pointed out - any time you get traffic information for other roads, it reverts you to car-up, rather than north-up.
I don't mind if the street information pop-ups are car-up, but it should keep north-up as a setting.

North Up doesn't even stay that way within a session. If a pop-up gets displayed or I'm re-routed, the display goes back to current direction up.

I want to be able to use North up as default map orientation. This can be set manually in the client, but has to be specified every time the program is started. It would be nice if this setting could be persistent, or could be set in settings.
