When will iPad be updated to have landscape mode?
I would love for tablet builds of PTCGL to be played in landscape instead of always being forced to portrait mode. I actively avoid playing PTCGL on iPad since playing in portrait mode is a lot less comfortable and more inconvenient for playing on the go.
Tablets, and specifically iPads are being designed around being used in landscape mode for most of its use, but should also be adaptable for how all users want to use the device. This is even a best practice outlined in Apple’s human interface guidelines as a key part of the platform:
It’s also a key point in Android’s app quality user design docs:
Adding landscape support would be such a big win for accessibility and just overall quality of life for all tablet users.
I basically only play PTCGL on my phone now since that screen size and form factor makes sense for the game since its forced into portrait mode. But, I would much rather play this game on tablet as the increased size is better than what phones offer when playing on the go or on the couch.
I don’t know if it’s just the fact there aren’t enough tablet daily active users for this to be prioritized, but I would take any attempt at adding this to tablet builds than having to play in portrait mode on tablet.
