Cannot view vr content directly from safari

I have tried viewing VR video on my iPhone 11 on safari directly, but the video POV doesn't turn when I move my head. I searched online and saw that I have to enable "Motion & Orientation Access" under the safari privacy setting, but I cannot find such setting in my phone, are there any solution to that?

Thanks in advance.

VR Games and Videos Dont Work on Safari After the New iOS update (16.5.1) Just updated my iPhone to the latest version of iOS 16.5.1. It seems that the new update made it so that you can’t properly view VR Games and Videos on Safari anymore. It was working just fine yesterday but now it starts to bug out after you “configure” when the message “Configure your browser for VR Safari needs to be configured to allow motion controls.” pops up. The VR games and videos start flipping around and don’t configure properly for anything VR to work. This is strictly a Safari issue from what I’ve noticed. Not entirely sure. I have already gone to my iPhones “Settings” and went to “Accessibility” and made sure that under “Motion” the “Reduced Motion” was turned off. I also checked to make sure “low power mode” was off. Still these did not help. Any ideas on when a fix will happen? Is there a way to reverse back to the previous version of iOS. I much preferred the 16.5 version. Any help/info is appreciated

Video player - Landscape Today I’m wondering how I can make my iPhone automatically open videos in landscape view. I like to keep my rotation lock on while using my phone, but when I play any video in safari and make it full screen, it automatically opens the video in portrait view. This makes me unlock my screen rotation to get the video to show in landscape, but sometimes when i move around it flips the screen when I dont want it to. Was hoping there was a solution to this problem. I am using an iPhone 13 on iOS 16.2.
