iPhone 14 Pro screen does not rotate when phone is upside down

I recently upgraded my phone from iPhone 7 to 14 Pro. The screen of the 14 Pro does not rotate if I place the phone upside down in my car's cup holder, as it did on my iPhone 7. What's the fix? I use the phone upside down in my car so the charging cable doesn't get crimped in the cup holder. Used to work perfect with my iPhone 7.

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

I believe that the iPhone 8 series was the last that would rotate upside down. Owing probably to the FaceID camera, that's no longer an option.


You can get mounts that fit into the cup holder. And example:
