The rotation lock icon is driving me crazy.
The rotation lock icon is driving me crazy is there a way to hide it from showing up? OR is there a way to return to a previous version of the software? maybe it would be better if the rotation lock was on either the menu when you swipe down or up. it just seems like it shows up and disappears randomly. maybe just knowing why it appears and disappears would help. It isn't just when i change the orientation which would seem like the ideal if it must be there.

I am grateful for this new feature and am excited that there is a fix on the way for the current "oversensitivity". Thanks to the devs for doing such a terrific job and for having such sanctified imaginations in creating such a powerful tool. This app is the only reason I purchased an iPad.

The pop up icon is nice since sometimes it is nice to be able to rotate quickly (when a title is longer than the screen, or for other odd formatting).
It has been mentioned to make it more transparent. Perhaps it could also be smaller. The first time it was great to see to know it was there. After that, it could be very small so as to not be a distraction if it pops up. (Since for most people the first time only happens once, small should work fine... Some people, such as my self, may have really bad memories so that first time discovery may happen again and again.

What about it is driving you crazy?
I added more to my post. It is because of the appearing and disappearing at random times.
The lock appears whenever the device detects an orientation change. I just realized that it shows when the orientation changes to face up or face down. It should really only show the lock if the orientation changes to landscape or portrait. I'll fix that in the next release and thanks for reporting it.
That is good to know. because i have it close to 45 degrees so it probably it switching between flat and sideways. i will try to hold it up flatter until the new release comes out. Any estimate how often the releases are being put out?

I would suggest the rotation lock icon be a little more subdued. The Kindle icon is noticeable but fairly unobtrusive. The one on the Logos app is a little too bold.
