What a mess. My s8+ has the option while the note 8 has not.

At this time, I would call your carrier and ask when their next wave of upgrades will be pushed to your phone.
Ask if their protocol of sending out is by serial # so you can get a better idea when you will recieve your upgrade.
Good luck.

Regretfully, sadly, unfortunately and lamentably my phone carrier's support (email / phone) is as clueless, evasive and inept as Samsung's email and phone support.
My quest continues...

If I understand your question correctly, you want to auto rorate your home page. If so,
Long press on your home page.
At the bottom right, press Home Page Settings
Scroll dowm to Portrait Mode Only.
If this is enabled, disable it.

so I found what was causing this.
I had uninstalled Bixby from my Note 8. Therefore, no landscape for homescreen.
I'm OK with this.
