Portrait mode can now be forced on all applications as part of the Community SSU. Not all applications work perfectly. Details of the compatibility of applications with portrait mode is compiled below.
The purpose of forcerotation is not to enable system-wide portrait for end-users.
System Applications

| Calculator | Not Usable | The keys don't align to the portrait mode |
| Calendar | Not Usable | |

| Hildon-Desktop | Not Available | |

| MicroB (Web) | Semi-Usable | When using built-in auto-rotation, ui elements such as address and status bar are unaccessible. When rotated by hildon ('enabled rotation' off in it's settings), just about all UI elements are usable; the bookmark button and the full screen button is there in the arrow's submenu, but they're invisible at the top and bottom halves of the small blank space that's there. |

| Settings | Fully Usable | N/A |
| Xterminal | Fully Usable | Rotation from portrait to landscape generates a large amount of "blank" space between the last lines of the history, and the current command-input line. |
