    Problem with rotation came back with version 5.20.2 on Iphone 14. Did it come back on yours also?

    As for his clearing the cache. All that does is delete the app, not clear cache on this version.

    Do you have the same reults?

    Hi Ahmed,

    Thanks for those instructions. Unfortunately, they don't resolve the issue. This is a significant UX issue, as it makes an iPhone useless for a meeting if someone is presenting.

    I followed those steps and reinstalled the app. I also restarted the phone.

    Can you advise as to when the ability to set the Teams screen to landscape while in a meeting where someone is presenting will be restored?

    I'm running iOS 16.5.1 on a XIII Mini.

    Kind regards,

    Bruce Melendy

    On my iphone, if I add my phone to a meeting on my computer I cannot rotate it, but if I am only on the call on my phone then it rotates fine.

    Hello,

    After "Clear Microsoft Teams Cache on iPhone", landscape orientation is still not working.

    I recognized the same. Quite often I'm using the PC and the mobile in parallel and would need to rotate to landscape on the iPhone.
    Is there a different way to deal with this issue?
