Public bug reported:
On a phone running Ubuntu Touch, I would think, phone app is the
absolute essential. It should even more so be ready for every user
scenario. But it isn't. It does not support landscape mode.
When in staged mode, it just simply ignores the landscape mode and
forcefully displays itself vertically. Well, at least it can be used, so
fine.
However, when in windowed mode, you can no longer make use of this. I
use my Ubuntu Touch phone mostly in landscape windowed mode. I cannot
make phone calls, because I can't even see the "call" button (attached
screen from my Meizu MX4 Ubuntu Edition).
Now, regardless whether or not it is anticipated by Canonical that users
will like me use Ubuntu Touch on the phone in landscape windowed mode,
it just should be possible! And it's not a big deal either, make the UI
a bit more responsive.
