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!
