Mobile Preview: Always display preview right side up, even if device is upside down
I connect the cable to my iPhone and I can't keep my phone standing on my iPhone stand, so I put my iPhone upside down so the cable is on the upper side of my phone, this way I can keep my phone on the stand, but the app doesn't rotate upside down so I have to keep my phone in my hand while designing.
This is a limitation on iOS. For instance, if you open the browser and rotate the phone (from portrait, to landscape, to upside down), it doesn’t flip the contents upside down.

What about android? One of my Android Phone - Redmi 4 was showing screen upside down without any additional settings or configurations. However, Another Android Device like OnePlus 6T, iPhone 7 etc doesn't work that way. Can you put some features within XD that let us use screen orientation from XD itself making it easier to use for designing purpose. It's most require feature when it comes to User Experience. All designers use Mobile Phone Stand to get quick idea how design looks like without picking up phone from desk and while XD requires Cable attached to devices, Mobile stands can not be utilised. However, If we put phone upside down, that works very well but XD has to provide some additional settings for that. I hope you get my point. It's not iOS or Android - it's a general issue and XD can resolve it from some settings within software.

Waze runs upside down. There has to be a way.

Bullshit. Look at the Skala view and Sketch preview App. :)
Here's one code solution (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20123009/ios-device-orientation-screen-is-not-supporting-upside-down) I bet there are more of them on the internet. -

I’d love this feature too! Sketch Mirror actually does this, so there has to be a way...
