Support for Landscape mode in iOS/Android app
Landscape support for iOS would be a real differentiation point to Slack. Slack lacks support for years now. Users of plus size devices would love to read and type to a channel. If you use a Plus size device in landscape and switch to Teams it is quiet annoying that the orientation switches to Portrait as well.

Need landscape mode to make it easier to use Power Apps (navigation, typing in) in Teams Android app.

Please allow landscape mode for video on iOS! Teams is great use for our office but portrait ONLY mode makes it very annoying!

Lack of this feature makes Teams useless for education as most of our students do not own a computer but follow lectures via mobiles.

I am also looking forward to an update that includes a button with which I can rotate the image 90 degrees. There is work to be done for Microsoft as more and more organizations are using Team.

Since MS Teams drains my phones battery for long telecons, I have to leave it plugged in, really annoying to leave it vertical and it falling over and such.

This is essential to be able to use teams on an Android device for working, in particular the camera given that most android devices. I would just android to connect to a virtual windows session in Azure, but I end up taking a laptop home instead.

This is needed. Currently this comes across and a conscious decision to actively hurt the ability to use the app. This is basic Android app design.

It's ridiculous that I can't switch to landscape when I'm in a call on MS Teams. Reading slide contents in portrait mode is a true pain

It's been more than 3 years since the first request for MS Teams to support Landscape mode. Someone said this should not even be a question. It's the most basic of any mobile native apps, all the more so for collaborative apps.
In Singapore Fintech Festival 2020, watching Bill Gates live in conversation on Teams without Landscape mode and the inability for Teams to even support full-screen video streaming to enable mobile users to see clearly the slide which Bill Gates was sharing, makes the entire experience miserable.
I'm sure Microsoft as a behemoth is able to comprehend the urgent need to 'fix' such experience on its Teams platform.

I use lists on a tablet so landscape mode would be easier for my users to see all columns.

Micosoft should add this option to settings to make everybody happy :)
Screen orientation:
1-auto (default)
2-always landscape
3-always portraitSo, that most of the time it works, and if some people want to force to landscape (in my case, i'm using it on a nvidia shield, which goes to portrait now!), that would be great!
