Weather Channel app not rotating on new iPad Pro Gen 6

I gave my daughter my 11” Gen 4 iPad Pro which worked fine with the weather channel app. I purchased the newest 12.9” pro which is basically the same tablet just larger. They both have the upgraded memory and 2TB. Weather Channel does not rotate on the 12.9. That just doesn’t seem to make sense/ I’ve checked all the usual suspect issues but everything seems fine. I actually set up the new tablet using my latest backup so everything seems to be still set up the way I like it.

Any ideas? Don’t be shy. I’m pretty puzzled myself. I do like the new iPad though…Al

iPad Pro, iPadOS 17

I just got this from The Weather Channel Support:

Hi!

Thank you for reaching out with this feedback about your impressions of the new iPad app.

At this time, the new app design only supports landscape mode on iPad. We made this decision to lean into a more immersive and contextual radar experience that allows you to multitask when using the app. I will pass your feedback about portrait mode on to the relevant teams working on making improvements to the new experience.

We have more exciting map layer enhancements planned so we hope you'll stick with us and give the new experience a chance.

Please let me know if you have additional comments. Thank you!

The Weather Company Support Team
