Good question. You can check out some on your phone, but a quick check
here:
- YouTube: respect my preference until I fullscreen a video, then
the video fills the screen in landscape until I return from
fullscreen.
- Netflix: respects the locked orientation until playing a video,
then goes to fullscreen landscape until I stop the video.
- HBO Now: same as Netflix.
- Amazon: always respects locked orientation, unless playing
video, then acts as Netflix does.
I guess I don't have a lot of apps that are landscape-only.
IIRC I did once have a game on this phone, and it opened full-screen in
landscape regardless of my orientation lock. Seems reasonable, because
as you say that app experience wouldn't make sense in portrait.
