This problem is better explained by a picture. First, when I launch the game: ![39607-screenshot_2015-04-21-18-20-11[1].jpg](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/6/b/e/6be6b60129c40cb2e81fd913add00a4764898b75.jpeg) Then, when I rotate my phone 90 degrees: ![39608-screenshot_2015-04-21-18-20-25.jpg](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/b/7/b/b7bf36d2a5432baae868ef34aee2d27a77edde19.jpeg) UMG needs to detect when screen orientation changes, and regenerate widgets when that happens. Meanwhile, is there a way to fix this? ---

Asus Zenfone 5 5. Android 4.4.2 Edit - did you try this on an Android or iOS phone? Could be a problem specific to Android. Let me know if it works for you on an Android 4.4.2 phone. ---

Hello , After looking into your issue I was able to confirm with a developer that rotation from portrait to landscape or visa versa is not currently supported on Android devices at this time. A similar issue (UE-11383) has been reported. I will be sure to bump the community interest on this issue. Thank you for your time and information. Make it a great day ---

I guess this is the reason why in 4.9.0 preview 4, the screen will not rotate on android. I hope you fix this, i saw the same reply 1 year ago. ---

Seeing this now with 5.1.1, iOS 16.3.1. Previously (earlier iOS) was able to change orientation without difficulty. Any fixes? ---
