Unable to apply transformation?

Hi everyone, I’ve done several of the beginner course at the OnShape learning center so I thought I had the basics down. I was trying to rotate a rectangle but it just isn’t working so I went more basic and tried to rotate a line, yet still nothing. I’ve read several posts on here and even asked chat GPT yet I was still unsuccessful. Am I missing something obvious? I’m using an iPad Pro if that makes a difference?
Here’s what I’m doing (here’s a link to a screen recording of what I describe below) :
I start a fresh document
Create a new sketch on the top plane
Confirm the sketch
Edit the sketch
Select transform
Remove any constraints
Rotate the line
Confirm the transformation
nothing happens
So I select edit again
Select transform
Rotate
Confirm the transformation
nothing

You have to "accept" the transform before you exit the sketch, you were just looking at the preview of the transform

Yup I realized shortly after posting this that tapping the green check mark doesn’t work on iPad like it does on a standard browser, I have to tap in an empty area to apply the transformation then the green check mark just exits the edit mode on the sketch. Thanks for your help!
