Describe the problem

A customer reports:

I would like to inform you that using my android tablet, the IVPN application only works in portriat mode. My device specifications are Samsung Galaxy Tab S8+ running Android 12, One UI 4.1. I'd ask if this could please be fixed where the application can change between portrait and landscape mode based on the devices orientation. This wouldn't be a big deal using a smartphone but as I and many others primarily use their tablet in landscape mode, this issue is annoying and worsens the UX.

Thanks.

FYI, @jordan-ivpn this is intended, landscape mode was disabled on tablets (and smartphones) as it was causing several issues across different devices (UI issues, crashes), but we could consider enabling it back again in the future. //Cc @jurajhilje
