Hey people. I have a bit of a niche situation. I use my phone with my left hand. When I hit the full screen button in YouTube or Jellyfin or any other app that can go full screen, the screen rotates to the right. So, if I rotate the phone the “natural way” for me, to the right, the image is upside down. Usually it only takes a second for the screen to rotate to the correct orientation, but sometimes it just refuses, so i have to do a weird dance with my phone (portrait-landscape-portrait-landscape).

Any idea of a way to “fix” this? I use a pixel 8, if it matters.

    I turned off auto-rotate, so when I rotate the phone I get a symbol in the top right corner to notify me that the screen rotation is locked and I just press that and the screen rotates to the current position. I use a Galaxy Fold 5.

      i have a routine set up on my Samsung that turns on Auto Rotate while in the YouTube app, and turns it off when i close YouTube. i also have a routine set up to automatically separate app sounds when I’m on Bluetooth and open any audio app… it’s great lol
