Enable Bambu Handy Landscape Rotation for Tablets

Bambu Handy is a pretty cool machine control tool (besides all the Maker World BS in the first page, which should be a separate software).

I run Bambu Handy on a 11.6"in tablet which comes with a keyboard and pen, hence, landscape format 99% of the time. The issue that the Bambu app screen does not adjust for the landscape format and keeps it as a tiny portrait screen on the center of two black columns, making it hard to read.

Absolutely, a better iPad experience would be awesome. Not just landscape support, but something beyond a blown-up smartphone app. With MakerWorld now in the mix, there’s a ton of potential to leverage that extra screen space.

On iOS/iPadOS, you can set the Printer tab as the default instead of the MakerWorld tab. It’s likely the same on Android, though I haven’t checked that out.

I found that too on Android… I am just not a big fan of all this in-app advertisement, including AppStore or Play Store (Google).

True, although I like to have the feature, they should give us the option to disable it completely.

i would hiughly appreciate that. fixing an older ipad permanently clos to the printer seems like a good use for an older ipad.

Would really enhance the user experience on a tablet

+1 it would definitely be an improvement to the workflow. I use the iPad mostly for looking up prints because I think the phone is just too small to use comfortably, then switch to the desktop for editing.

+1, for Android tablets
I can force it landscape on Samsung tablets, but it insists on only 2 or 3 columns across, which makes for comically inconvenient super low res Fisher-Price layouts.

Bumping this. It would be so handy (pun) if landscape mode was an option

Would love to see it also on Android Tablets and phones, got old OnePlus which would be perfect to be used as dedicated screen for my 2 P1S’s

Yes, please; I’d use the app more; but without landscape; never mind. On ipadOS btw

+1 for Android app to run landscape.
