Rotate apps to landscape display

I have a few apps on my iPad that won’t rotate to the landscape display. My autorotate is not locked. I do not have a manual button to control this. Any other suggestions?

iPad Air, iPadOS 14

If screen rotation proves to be problem with some Apps - and not others - you need to be aware that not all Apps are coded to operate in both Portrait and Landscape screen modes. Apps that have a fixed screen orientation will always appear in the orientation determined by the App Developer.


In such instances, you might choose to direct appropriate comment to the App Developer:
