Description

Some of my vertical pictures have now started to randomly be rotated by 90 when viewed by material Files Image viewer. This problem is exclusive to the app and does not exist on other devices and applications for example in Instagram, SMS, WhatsApp.

It's strange because the preview thumbnail has the correct orientation in material file but not it's viewer.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the rotation problem in the Material Files image viewer with vertical pictures, comparing the viewer with the correctly oriented preview thumbnail. Done means affected vertical images display with the correct orientation in the viewer, as they do in the other applications mentioned.
