Please, please, please can we get the companion app to support landscape mode. My Tacx tablet holder does not hold a phone and only holds the iPad in landscape. I run Zwift on the appleTV and use the iapd for the companion app.

Companion app should work in landscape and portrait.

Yes please. I understand it’s practically developing a new tab, but even if you’d allow to rotate screen leaving wide black stripes on sides, it still would help.

I would also love the landscape option. Happy to have a cropped vertical screen as mentioned above.

Also would appreciate this - with the phone/tablet holder on my bike, the charging port is covered up if you put it in portrait mode, so if there was a landscape setting for the app, I could keep my phone on charge while using the Companion app (which does run down the battery really quickly).

I had the same problem but found loads of apps for controlling orientation in Google store. I installed ‘Rotation Control’ (free), set it to application specific and told it that Companion was landscape and it worked. Mine is an android fix but as ipad apps out-number android there’s bound to be plenty to look at. I agree it would be much better if native in the Zwift app but this will get us by until then. Good luck.

I’d love this feature and have asked this a few months back. (After I broke my old IPad when sprinting) sooooooo £350 later I’m asking again. I’m a beacon on GGCC group rides so Companion is essential. At the moment my iPad is tie wrapped to my Tacx holder. Not ideal.
