Tap to Pay Screen Auto-Rotation Behavior on Android 14 vs Android 13

[Numan6141]

Summary

We’ve observed a difference in behavior with the Tap to Pay screen when using the Stripe Terminal SDK (v4.1.0) on a tablet:

• On Android 14: The Tap to Pay screen automatically rotates to landscape.
• On Android 13: The Tap to Pay screen does not auto-rotate and remains in portrait mode.

This inconsistency raises the question of whether the auto-rotation behavior on Android 14 is expected or if it’s related to a compatibility issue with the SDK on this version of Android.

Could you confirm if this behavior is intended? If not, is there a workaround or fix we should apply to ensure a consistent experience across both Android versions?

Looking forward to your response.
