Pinterest and screen rotation

I am having to rotate screen to open any post of interest to me on Pinterest. It’s getting bothersome as most of the iPad cases don’t support portrait screen viewing.

iPad 2, iOS 9

If screen rotation proves to be problem with some Apps - and not others - you need to be aware that not all third-party Apps are coded by the Developer to operate in both Portrait and Landscape screen modes.


Apps that have a fixed screen orientation will always appear in the orientation determined by the App Developer. This is not a limitation of iPad.


Recent models of iPad that support iPadOS16 Stage Manager have capability of displaying windowed Apps - and can display a Portrait App while the iPad screen is oriented in Landscape mode.
