## Review summary

Rotation Control is valued for its simplicity and effectiveness in managing screen rotation, especially on Android 11 and for devices with limited native options. Users appreciate its no-ad experience and ability to override problematic app rotations. However, common complaints include the absence of per-app rotation settings, no auto-start feature, instability of the notification control, unclear permission needs such as internet access, and limitations in widget design and functionality.

### Pros

- Easy to use and effective at controlling screen rotation
- Works well with Android 11 without ads
- Helpful for apps or devices where default rotation settings are limited or overridden
- Allows manual screen rotation control on demand
- Fixes rotation issues for poorly created apps

### Cons

- Lacks per-app rotation settings
- No auto start function available
- Control or notification icon sometimes disappears unexpectedly
- Requires internet/network access which raises privacy concerns
- Widget size and functionality is limited and not customizable
