iPhone Screen Won't Rotate? Here is the REAL Fix! (100% Worked)
If your iPhone screen won’t rotate, it can be frustrating, especially when using apps that are better viewed in landscape mode, like YouTube or games. The most common reason your screen isn’t rotating is that the orientation lock is enabled. This lock prevents your screen from automatically adjusting its orientation when you turn your device sideways. To fix this, open the Control Center by swiping down from the top-right corner of the screen (or swiping up on older iPhones). Look for the orientation lock icon, which looks like a padlock with a circular arrow around it. If the icon is highlighted, it means the orientation lock is turned on. Tap it to disable the lock, and your screen should rotate automatically when you tilt your phone.
If you can’t find the orientation lock in the Control Center, you may need to add it manually. Go to Settings, select Control Center, and customize the controls by adding the orientation lock option. After ensuring the lock is disabled, test your screen by rotating it while using an app that supports landscape mode. Some apps are designed to work only in portrait mode, so try using a universal app like Safari or YouTube to confirm the issue is resolved.
In rare cases, if your screen still doesn’t rotate after disabling the lock, it could be due to a software glitch or sensor issue. Restarting your phone might fix this problem. If the issue persists, ensure your iPhone software is updated to the latest version or contact Apple Support for further assistance.
