While iPad can be used standalone in either Landscape or Portrait screen orientation - when used with Sidecar as a second screen for Mac, the iPad screen orientation is fixes as Landscape.


While your iPad does not support Sidecar in Portrait orientation, Apple does invite submission of feature requests via its Product Feedback portal:
