Free42 iOS request
For Thomas, of course:
It would be nice to have the screen rotate 180° (π radians ;-) when you turn the phone around (eg when it is charging and the cable is too short ..)

Cheers, Werner

Are you saying it doesn't do that already? That's odd, it does on my phone...

OK, I'll check with the iPhone 11 simulator later today.
It's probably something I missed, having to do with the notch...

Googled it.. seems iPhones 10 and up don't do that any more..
Waze, Maps etc.. are supposed to turn 360°, but they don't, either. Sigh.

RE: Free42 iOS request
Ah. Definitely notch-related, then. Which sort of makes sense, because it would require adding a separate app layout to support having the notch at the bottom of the UI.
It is lame to not even allow it, though. Sigh.
