Full screen android auto - Feature or Bug

I updated my sync 4 to rev 934 this weekend giving me full screen on android auto, which is great.
With that, when I display google maps, the current location arrow is no longer centered in the screen. It is 2/3 of the screen to the right. Very odd to view this way since I am so used to it being centered.

Feature or Bug?

Mine has had full screen android auto for quite a while now.
The offset of the vehicle location arrow, is because when you have routing entered in, the info covers the left 1/3 of the screen.
Switch the map over to satellite view, it's an even better experience.

I have version 610. There does not appear to be much difference between what I have and the latest version. Everything works well on 610. Here are some pics.

I am guessing Waze doesn't offer a satellite view???

I think you are correct. Just started using waze for the road warnings and might be better than Google maps for some situations. Have both set up at this point.

934 allows other changes to be made, such as Blackbox removal while viewing rear camera in motion.
