Beacon v0.2.14 - Portrait-Only Mobile Shell

Beacon v0.2.14 - Portrait-Only Mobile Shell

This release locks Beacon to portrait orientation on mobile devices. Beacon is an emergency-first interface, so the rescue UI should not rotate into landscape because of gravity sensor changes while the user is moving, panicking, lying down, or carrying the phone one-handed.

Highlights

• Locks Android MainActivity to portrait orientation with android:screenOrientation="portrait".
• Restricts iPhone supported orientations to portrait only.
• Restricts iPad supported orientations to portrait only.
• Enables iPad full-screen mode so portrait-only behavior follows iOS native rules consistently.
• Keeps the lightweight APK path: Gemma weights are still downloaded in-app, not bundled into the APK.

Real-Device Verification

• Installed versionCode 17 / versionName 0.2.14 on Android device 25019PNF3C.
• Forced Android system rotation to landscape (user_rotation=ROTATION_90).
• Confirmed Beacon stayed portrait with screenshot size 1080 x 2400.
• Confirmed Beacon remained the focused foreground activity.
