It's wonderful in the ability to flip everything completely over. Allows me to use my phone without a charging cable sticking into me, eventually breaking the cable. Allows me to force some apps to open in a certain orientation. My only problem with it, it occasionally doesn't seem to start, or maybe it hangs? Simple fix is to open the front end, stop and restart it. Samsung Fold 5.

Hello Tyler! Thanks for the feedback. Please make sure that you have excluded Rotation from any battery/background optimizations. Alternatively, you can use the accessibility service for a better experience. Rotation --- Conditions --- Events Accessibility --- Rotation --- On.

It works OK but for some reason in reverse portrait the status bar is either clipped or missing entirely. Playing around with the display cut out settings in Developer Options fixed it temporarily but it doesn't work any more. Any help appreciated.

Hello Andrew! This issue is related to your ROM or UI (system) and unfortunately, Rotation can't do much to fix it due to the system limitations. Kindly contact me via email for further investigation.

EDIT kept switching back to auto rotate after a minute. Uninstalled. All I wanted was a toggle for screen rotation on and off and the widget does just that. Resized it to a circle, turned toast and notifications off and I've got a handy silent on/off switch to avoid having to drag the shade down.
