I think I was using Strava or MapMyRide and I hate when I travel South and need to think which way to turn when the pointer is moving down the screen. Also, I do not think either shifts the map keeping you in the center.
OK, On MapMyRide, if you click the compass arrow it will toggle between travel direction and North.

Have not yet found out how to do this on Strava or if it is an option.

Update: Evidently, this is still a wish list feature on Strava. Another reason to use a Garmin instead or use Ride with GPS or Map My Ride. Map My ride does this and I think Ride with GPS does. Ride WIth GPS also offers turn by turn nav I think.
