Issue: Screen rotation becomes locked when updating the status bar on an iPhone Duo.
This does not appear to be a device-specific hardware issue; however, it occurs specifically on the iPhone Duo.
In my app, if I change the status bar visibility (using prefersStatusBarHidden) while on the iPhone Duo’s external screen, and then immediately unfold the device to reveal the internal screen, the app’s rotation state becomes locked.
Although I use prefersInterfaceOrientationLocked to manage rotation, the app remains locked even when this property returns false.
The issue persists even when prefersInterfaceOrientationLocked is commented out or removed entirely.
Returning to the device’s home screen, rotating the device, and then re-entering the app resolves the lock.
Has anyone encountered or resolved a similar issue?
