Xcode – AppDelegates function "supportedInterfaceOrientationsFor" does not get called on iPads

In my AppDelegate I am using a function to rotate my device and lock the orientation.

iPhone shall be portrait only, and iPad landscape only.

It works on iPhones, but the following function does never get called on iPads:

func application(_ application: UIApplication, supportedInterfaceOrientationsFor window: UIWindow?) -> UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
    print("Test")
    return AppDelegate.orientationLock
}

I think it was working on iPads before I switched to "SwiftUI Life Cicle" but I am not absolutely sure if this was the point of time, where it stopped working:

 @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var appDelegate

The info.plist is also set to "Landscape only" for iPads, but the app starts in portrait mode anyway, which is strange too:

info.plist

    I had to set this key in my info.plist to false, so that application(_:supportedInterfaceOrientationsFor:) gets called on iPads:

    <dict>
    <key>UIApplicationSupportsMultipleScenes</key>
    <false/>
</dict>

    Thanks @lorem ipsum for the hint!
