Bug Description

On iOS, the reading screen orientation is janky. If it's set to portrait or landscape only, when ever I rotate the phone, the display will also be rotating according to the phone physical position and then immediately back to the set reading orientation.

VID-20250621-WA0000.mp4

Expected behavior

The reading screen should stay and lock the orientation when reading, regardless of the phone's physical orientation and regardless of whether the OS orientation setting is free or locked. Like on Android. Even though the android screen orientation setting is free, but as long as reading screen orientation in Readest is locked to portrait or landscape, it will stay lock, no matter how I turn the phone.

Technical inputs

Operating System: iOS 18.5

Readest Version: 0.9.59 (WebView 605.1.15)

Thank you
