Configuring Screen Rotation Settings

The Android screen rotation feature automatically adjusts the display orientation (portrait or landscape) based on how the device is held. Within the WeGuard Console, administrators can lock or unlock this behavior to ensure a consistent user experience—especially useful for dedicated kiosks or field-mounted tablets.
