Description

**iOS device model, version and app version**

Model Name: iPhone 12 Pro
Software Version: iOS 17.5.1 (21F90)
App version: 20240710.0

**Home Assistant Core Version**

2024.7.2

**Describe the bug**

Very often, if you rotate the screen from portrait to landscape mode (automatic rotation turned on in iOS control center), some kind of zoom is applied, which is not revertible, if the zoom mode is turned of in the companion apps settings. This happens very often randomly throughout the whole app (= isnt connected to specific views/pages like Dashboard views, Add on view, Settings view or else). Switching back to Portrait or refreshing the page doesnt help. You need to close the app completely and restart it to get the full screen again.

**To Reproduce**

Switch from Portrait to landscape view back and forth while using the app.

**Expected behavior**
Should not zoom at all, if zoom is disabled or at least it should be possible to zoom out to full screen once, even if zoom is disabled

**Screenshots**

**Additional context**

This behaviour isn't new and I don't think its connected to the beta version, as I've observed this since i started (at least 1.5 years ago) in the different app versions. I updated the app regularly every time there was an update.

It must be a general iOS app problem, as the same behaviour can be observed using my iPads or other iPhone models.
