Do all iPhone X have a terrible direction indicator with maps or google maps? It points in the complete opposite direction.
 
I had this happen the other day too. It fixed itself during the drive but, when I started the route it was pointing the opposite direction I was traveling
 
The phone doesn't know which direction to place up until you begin to move. Once it sees that, it'll rotate the map to match the direction you're going.

Yeah I think it's like the old figure-8 calibration requests Maps used to ask the user to perform (although, I haven't noticed these requests for a while, mainly because I use the superior Google Maps).

The navigation in general on my iPhone X is terrible. It frequently seems to have trouble catching up to my turns.
