Buddy 3D camera - No Rotate option in connect

My Buddy3D camera is mounted upside down. I can't flip the view in Prusa Connect. I have read the different posts on this subject, and people are just stating to hit the rotate button on the view to flip the camera view. This works for me in the app, but there is no rotate button showing up for me in Connect.

No idea why that screenshot doesn't expand when clicked, so here's another try:

Same issue for me with no fix in sight. Surely the developers though of this right?

It's there, just not where you would expect it to be, Scroll down to Other Cameras. Why they put it there, no idea.

That does not work at all! It just turns the thumbnail! On the App it works great but on the web it does not work. Thats why I said I have the same issue!

Dumb question because I can't see the set up. 
Can't you rotate the camera in your set up? Either the physical mount, or rotate the camera itself from the controls? 
can you take a picture of your set up and if its not possible, I will submit it to the connect devs

It should not matter! Everybody has a different setup. If it’s working in the app to rotate then it should work on the web page also. Only thing rotating is the thumbnail. This is something the developers should fix ASAP. If I mount it sideways I need to be able to rotate it within the web page!

Actually it does matter, hence why I asked, but if you don't want to provide that info, that is fine and when the developers ask what position the camera is on so they can properly look at things, it will take longer...

Actually it does not matter. Other cams you can EASILY rotate flip and mirror the image and video. Only Prusa Connect has not correctly implemented this simple function. Everybody has a different setup thats why such a BASIC function is needed. You can argue all you want on this point but those are the facts.
