That feature has always been annoying to me, even on phones. I always turn it off because “I” will control whether my screen rotates or not. Maybe sometimes I don’t want it to rotate when I turn the phone (like when I’m viewing building plans at work and want to orient the screen with how I’m looking at the building I’m standing in).
Not sure how standard this is, but on Pixel phones the default is no auto rotation, but when the phone detects rotation it will display a tiny rotate button in the corner of the screen for just a few seconds. Best of both worlds IMO.
That rotate button is incredibly annoying. I turned off auto-rotate for a reason and the button obscures other information displayed in that corner of the screen. Wish I could turn the button off too.
On Samsung devices you can go into settings and add a “routine” under Modes And Routines that automatically enables auto rotate for certain apps, and disables it when you leave the apps.
Alternatively I believe you can do the same if you have a license for Tasker.

My android does that too, but some apps ignore it and it’s extremely annoying, especially when lying in bed (looking at you, Sleep for Android)
On stock Android and Samsung, the default is auto rotation, but when I turn it off, exactly that happens. That’s why I turn it off.

What information is in your navigation bar?
What navbar?
I hate controlling screen rotation based off it. It’s great in controllers for aiming though.
