I think the only problem is pictures taken in portrait mode with an iPhone end up residing horizontally on the phone. All one has to do is rotate them back "before" posting them on WPS.

Ok, understood.. seems to work.. But one might also test to „pre-rotate“ pic before entering the pic-handling/uploading,
