[android] Why does an image captured using camera intent gets rotated on some devices on Android?

I created a Kotlin extension function that simplifies the operation for Kotlin developers based on @Jason Robinson's answer. I hope it helps.

fun Bitmap.fixRotation(uri: Uri): Bitmap? {

    val ei = ExifInterface(uri.path)

    val orientation: Int = ei.getAttributeInt(
        ExifInterface.TAG_ORIENTATION,
        ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_UNDEFINED
    )

    return when (orientation) {
        ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_90 -> rotateImage( 90f)
        ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_180 -> rotateImage( 180f)
        ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_ROTATE_270 -> rotateImage( 270f)
        ExifInterface.ORIENTATION_NORMAL -> this
        else -> this
    }
}

fun Bitmap.rotateImage(angle: Float): Bitmap? {
    val matrix = Matrix()
    matrix.postRotate(angle)
    return Bitmap.createBitmap(
        this, 0, 0, width, height,
        matrix, true
    )
}
