When developing app for iPad most of them are fixed portrait because of the nature of the app.

IOS26 now ignores this settings because windows can be resized and windowed so breaking this fixed option, very annoying.

Even if you maximise the window it still rotates.

Hey folks,

Check out TN3192: Migrating your iPad app from the deprecated UIRequiresFullScreen key | Apple Developer Documentation.

I do have the same issue, and this issue is even more serious if you display a camera, as the camera doesn't rotate in this case...
