I have got a iPad ios 12.1, when I click on a photo on Facebook, when it is in landscape mod, it opens up in portrait mode. (The wrong way round). The same happens when I open my Facebook photo albums.
I have reset the iPad, and removed Facebook and installed it again, still the same. It only happens on Facebook photos.

I have no answer - only the exact same problem. It seems to be linked to the last OS 12.1 update. Maybe fb has to be updated to match the OS update? Just a thought.

MERGED QUESTION
Question from dinkhall : "Facebook Photos not rotating"

On my iPad, I look at FB in Landscape Orientation. When I click on an image, the image opens in Portrait Orientation. I’ve found no solution but I did find this thread.

I have not upgraded iOS so it must be a Facebook issue....started a few weeks back. Seems typical these days with updates....no-one seems to want to get things right first....then the blame game starts....

I have the exact same problem. My rotation is on and I’m also using an iPad Pro . This only happens when I am using Facebook. So I’ll be checking back for a solution to this. I’m also using software version 12.1.

Same here. Going nuts and it’s just a FB issue. I’ve put in help report 2 weeks ago. Pretty sure they’re aware and could take weeks or even months to fix

When the photo is incorrectly in portrait mode, swipe in from the left ( bringing down the curtain), then press the home button, and your photos will be now in landscape for that post only.
Need to do this for all posts which isn’t great but.....

This happens to me too (iPad pro). Ever since the last updates. I’ve scanned the internet for answers but only now are people posting their problem so I’m not the only one. Also, my Facebook Pages app now only opens in portrait screen orientation - it used to open in landscape.
