Problem Description / Use Case

Feature Request

I'd like to request native landscape support for Android tablets. Many tablet users prefer using their devices in landscape, but the app currently appears to be locked to portrait.

Proposed improvements

  • Support landscape orientation across the entire app.
  • Provide a tablet-optimized landscape layout (e.g. navigation rail/sidebar and multi-pane UI where appropriate).
  • Add a setting to lock the app to Portrait, Landscape, or follow the System orientation.

Why this would help

On tablets, landscape provides a much better viewing experience and makes better use of the available screen space. It would significantly improve usability for browsing anime, managing libraries, and watching content.

Thank you for considering this feature!
