Screen rotation not working

Today i noticed that the screen rotation on ly Ipad Air 2 is not working anymore.

Currently, iOS 10.2 is installed on the device.

To clarify, the screen rotation lock is not enabled.

When i turn the screen, the interface does not rotate with it.

I was playing music through spotify and when i locked my screen in landscape mode, about 2/3 of the screen was visible. After unlocking and turning it off and on again, the rotation issue was not fixed, but i had portrait mode.

I then tried opening a landscape app and closing it with the tablet in portait mode.

The UI turned to portait mode and instantly turned back to landscape mode.

Suddenly, the tablet went back to landscape, but nos i cannot rotate it in any way, except the app i am using is landscaoe oriented.

Any help/thoughts on this issue?

There is no physical damage to the iPad at all, nor did it fall/take damage prior to thus issue.

The interface was last changed in the iOS update a week or so ago. Probably the 10 or 10.2 update.
