ILS - Glideslope but no localizer needle

I'm using SD android (latest version). In the "airfield view" (the one that comes up after pressing on the "i") after selecting a runway the ILS appears at the bottom as normal but instead of a glideslope and localizer I get a glideslope and a heading bug. Once below 500' AGL and the glideslope disappears, at this point the localizer needle appears. The heading bug appears to be carrying out the functions of the localizer needle, so the thing is usable, but it would be more useful if it presented itself as a standard ILS.

I'm using a nexus 7 (old type) with a bluetooth GPS and absolutely everything else works normally.

Yes, an arrow indicates that the needle is deflected beyond where it can appear on the screen.
