App Rotation Lock

Include a setting where people can choose whether they want to lock screen rotation for the app in landscape or portrait mode regardless of the position of their device? This would be especially helpful given the menu on the phone app disappears when it rotates into landscape mode

Additionally, on my iPhone 12, the menu bar in landscape mode gets cut off by the phones notch.
As you mentioned in our direct message on Twitter, I am referring to internal selling that would allow individual users to Lock the app in portrait mode. I am aware that iPhones have rotation locks. Still, an internal lock would help users interact with the app regardless of the position of their phone (such as reading in bed) without having to remember to turn on the phone’s rotation lock. Thank you, I love the StoryGraph!
Thank you for the suggestion! It isn't the smoothest, but it is possible to scroll down on the menu bar when the app is in landscape. Is that the main reason or are there other pain points? I ask because apart from the menu bar, the layout should still work on landscape as it'll be a similar design to our iPad app, so it's good to know all of the issues that are arising.
