Game gets portrait mode, even though it's set as disabled

We have a game which is supposed to change orientations in Android, but not in iOS (because we have problems with AdMob interstitials this way). The settings are set as the game works only in landscape mode in Unity. I see the same settings in XCode. But when the game scene starts after menus (game is landscape in menus), the game is able to get in portrait mode.

Important thing to note here is that there are codes written for Android, which sets the orientation of game manually (forced to landscape for menus, auto rotation allowed for game). But these codes are inside #if UNITY_ANDROID, and I also added if(Application.platform == RuntimePlatform.Android) checks making sure those codes are only Android exclusive. I even commented the code that allows auto rotation, it still didn't work.

I searched for every Screen. codes in Visual Studio, it seems like there aren't any codes that are missed.

What am I missing here?

I use Unity 2018.4.17f1.

 

In the PlayerSettings for iOS, try setting Default Orientation to Auto Rotation and then unchecking the Portrait options in the "Allowed orientations for Auto Rotation" section that appears? This should allow the app to be rotate in to Landscape Left and Right but not Portrait on iOS.

 

Does not work for me in iOS, even if portrait mode is disabled in xCode and Unity..
It now starts default landscape left, but if I turn the phone to portrait mode, its going to accept it...

 

Did you ever get a resolution for this?

I have a similar issue in 2019.3.15f1 where I only allow 'Landscape Right' orientation. However, when I start the game in portrait mode, the status bar is visible, the launcher screen is messed up and the game can actually begin in Portrait.

I've recently changed the splash screen to a Storyboard, to pass Apple submission, so I think it must be related to that.

 

please try use both launchscreen.storyboard and splashscreen with xib files
