Nice tool, is there a way to have a compass / direction arrow pointed at the direction of your nearby friend?

that's a good idea. I'll try to add something like that to the next release.

In the current version, you can tap the navigate icon on the top-right of the map and the map will rotate to follow your heading. Then you can just point it towards any of your friends. But you're right, a simple compass could be better.
