Title: Support landscape orientation for tablets/foldables (Android 16+)
Description:
Google Play Console recommends removing portrait-only orientation lock to support large screens (tablets, foldables) in Android 16+.
Current state:
- App is locked to portrait orientation in buildozer.spec
- Layout was tested in landscape during development but didn't work well
- Works perfectly in portrait mode
Why portrait makes sense:
- Celestial navigation with sextant is naturally a portrait activity
- Current UI is optimized for vertical layout
- We can assume users will accept portrait orientation (?)
What needs to be done:
- Review Kivy layout components for landscape compatibility
- Test FontAwareConfig behavior in landscape
- Redesign input forms to work in both orientations
- Test on various tablet sizes
- Consider if landscape is even necessary for this use case
