Autorotate Still an Easy to Fix Issue

It might be a 'device issue', but it's throwing fights and ruling out hard paths for those of us who can't afford new phones.

Even those who have working devices could get an autorotate if they tilt their device, say on a flat surface. It is fair to say that no-one wants autorotate *during* a fight, unless it's paused. The time that it takes to rotate would interrupt the flow even if the screen were the wrong way up.

I'm sure that this is a *won't fix* with some marketese reason like 'flexibility'. Please reconsider. Flipping *during* a fight is almost never intentional.

    I mean I could perfectly understand the idea of that being a device issue, cause the only apps I've seen that won't autorotate are ones that are in portrait view.
    But if auto-rotate is annoying you so much, just activate that option that locks the orientation. Pretty simple solution. And it's not an option that's too out there to find and activate (from what I know from the mobile devices I have used). Activate that and then your screen won't flip.

    I've done this, but Kabam override the setting. There are a few other devices that have the same problem. This problem is now a ceiling on my progress, now that I am sufficiently skilled for autorotate to be more likely to take me out than an ordinary mistake.

    I actually see this as a kind of arrogance, that no accommodations are make for old or slightly flawed devices. Not everyone can afford a new phone, the fix is easy, but then I guess that we're more likely to be free to play players if we're not upgrading old devices, or else to consume items to compensate for the loss. I can see why Kabam might see NOFIX to be in their interests.
