Why is the desktop rotation feature missing?

Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
Model Name: ZenFone 9 16/256GB
Firmware Version: VW_32.2030.2030.26
Rooted or not: No
Frequency of Occurrence: Daily
APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app): System, Main screen preferences
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
Why is the desktop rotation feature missing? I was surprised that the ZenFone 9 doesn't have this feature when older ZenFones did. Is it possible to activate this function somehow? It is suitable when using the phone in the car or with original accessories such as the Connex Smart Stand.

What was this function exactly? It's my first Zenfone.

This function rotates the surface to the width of the phone, such as on tablets. It can be set via the main screen preferences. ZenFone 5 and ZenFone Max M2 can do this function.

It's hidden in developer options by press version multiple times in about to unlock dev settings

@mickey10021 After turning on the developer mode, I did not find this option there. I also thought it was hiding there, but it's not there. I have a ZenFone 9 16/256GB with Android 12 (I'm not in the Android 13 Beta program). Or is it hiding somewhere?

Hey @Tomy90c, this feature is currently not available in the Zenfone 9. However, thanks for your feedback, I'll forward it to the respective team.
