Since upgrading to 1.0.4.20 my browser only switches to landscape mode when I turn the device to the left. I prefer turning it to the right. Why am I constrained to left-turning to get to landscape mode?

+1, and on a related note: it won't go upside down either..

I don't think this is a browser issue... doesn't the same happen everywhere else?

yup, same happens to the messaging app as well.

Full rotation works with a few apps I use;

File Browser

Jolla Together app

Camera app

This is the same behaviour of Nokia phones and by the way I like it this way. If it followed the phone rotation, for example, you would not be able to display a picture upside down. Sounds weird, but it can be useful.

This question is not relevant anymore and should be closed cause the issue reported has been resolved in many system updates since 1.0.4.20.
