Zoom Automatically Rotates Meeting Interface on Android

Hi there,

I'm a Zoom user encountering an issue while using the Zoom app on my Android phone. I hope to either find a solution or learn if there are corresponding settings available.

Issue Description: Despite disabling auto-rotate on my Android device, Zoom automatically adjusts the orientation of the meeting interface when my phone rotates. This causes inconvenience during meetings. I prefer the Zoom meeting interface to remain fixed in orientation without automatically adjusting based on my phone's rotation.

Is there a setting within the Zoom Android app to address this issue? If not, are there alternative solutions or plans to include similar functionality in future updates?

but this problem was not there in earlier versions. So there is no concept of checking the feasibility. In al previus versions 5.xxxxxxx the zoom screen followed the phone orientation only

Interesting how Zoom has been backpedaling recently. It's almost 2026 and Zoom is still violating my device's settings.

By violating, I mean my OS is forcing every app to make sure auto-rotate is turned off. Every app. Discord has had this issue as well... But Discord no longer has this issue. Zoom does though. So Zoom is overriding my developer settings, my devices settings and my OS's settings and so yeah...

I'm considering deleting my account and no longer using Zoom because of this. This is a breach of my device.
