Description

From https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native/issues/9041

> It would be really nice if out of the box, when pitched MGLMapView worked like the one in default iOS mapping application (For e.g. rotation of MGLMapView is very similar to the default iOS mapping application).

> 1.) 2D button that automatically appears when map is pitched.
> 2.) Disable pitch at lower zoom levels.

Noting that the above description captures how the [iOS Maps app](https://www.apple.com/ios/maps/) works at the time of this writing although the features above seem timeless 😄 . What other iOS Maps app behavior might make sense for a plugin like this?

Depends on https://github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native/pull/9009
