AAOS please change Automatic recentering to Manual recentering

When scrolling the map on screen, when navigating or just following the map, there is a short delay before which it automatically recenters on your vehicle position and the map resumes moving.

Problem: when navigating in a vehicle you often need to interact slowly in multiple small increments repositioning, zooming, etc while you mainly focus on driving. However that is not possible by the driver or even by the passenger as it always snaps back whan pausing interaction. Example: is I ask my passenger to zoom in on the satelite view of upcoming rest stop or charge stations to locate chargers see if it is trailer friendly and what to expect for navigating the parking lot with a trailer. Additionally searching for a hotel, restaurant, or landmark you scroll and look at the map and as soon as you stop moving it for a couple of secconds it snaps back to the vehicle.

Solution: Pop up a manual Re-center button when the map is manually dragged, and add in an optional, configutable auto recenter setting that could be set from seconds to minutes to handle cases of accidental screen drags or just stopping interaction when done tomreturn to normal operation.
