Roblox Games Force opening on Portrait Mode when opened on Mobile Chrome

Started: 2 days ago

Whenever I click the play button on a Mobile Web Browser whilst logged in, it takes me directly to the game and locks me on portrait mode even when my phone’s orientation is on landscape . When i am Logged into a different account to the app it loads on Landscape .

On the mobile app, it does not show this behaviour, loading on the usual Landscape.

This is happening on all games and it i getting annoying to have to leave a game and rejoin whenever i joined through a link.

My phone’s screen orientation only has two settings, Portrait and Auto rotate, in these circumstances it was on Auto rotate and i was holding it on landscape.

Phone Model: moto g(8) power lite

we were unable to repro on our end. Are you still having the issue? @boterflic5

Yes, But it doesn’t happen when the game manually sets the screen orientation to horizontal
