RE: Locking Orientation
Thanks! I knew it was in a different place than when I first got my IPhone over 2 years ago. Back then it was on the second page of the App Switcher I believe!

To get to it touch an item in the status bar like the time, battery level etc. then swipe up with 3 fingers from the bottom of the screen towards the top. Lock Orientation is on the very right in the top row which has the following items from left to right: Airplane Mode, WiFi, Bluetooth, Do Not Disturb and Lock Orientation. On the touch screen this is easy to find if you touch just below the volume down button and then put your finger on the screen at that level.

RE: Locking orientation on a new iPhone
Open the Control Centre by touching the status bar and then flicking up with three fingers.

Re: locking orientation
Ray, Are you on an iPhone or iPad? If you're on an iPad you can set the side switch behavior to either mute/unmute or lock/unlock orientation. This is found in Settings - General - Use side switch to... Unfortunately this option isn't available on the iPhone it seems. Thelock orientation option is in the Control Center though, The options are, from left to right: Airplane Mode, WiFi, Bluetooth,Do Not Disturb, Lock Orientation. Under this row of toggles is the Brightness control and under that are the Music controls, then things like Calculator, Clock, Flashlight are on the bottom row.

Re: locking orientation
Ray, If you are not able to do the Control Center gesture from the status bar, the other ways I know of involve either using a Bluetooth keyboard or Braille display. If you don't have either of these, I don't know of another way to get to the Control Center other than the 3 finger swipe up after touching the status bar. It does appear that the settings/control center item does not yield anything useful; sorry about that. Perhaps someone has another idea. Perhaps you could open it with Siri. Wayne On 3/11/14, Ray T.

Re: locking orientation
AhhYou're in Settings - Control Center. The only way to access the actual Control Center to my knowledge is the 3 finger swipe up from the Home screen or Lock screen, which I know you said was difficult and can understand your frustration. I would suggest writing to Apple Accessibility to explain the difficulty. It seems there should definitely be another option to get to the orientation lock on the iPhone.

Re: locking orientation
Ray, Glad you were able to get it. You may want to research the Assistive Touch options in the Accessibility settings as well. I've never used it but it appears you can create custom gestures that maybe could be substituted for some of the difficult gestures.

Re: locking orientation
Isn't there some way to reach the control center with one finger? I read somewhere about swiping up from the bottom.

Re: locking orientation
Teresa, You're right. If you tap and hold at the very bottom center of the screen and then one-finger swipe up it does reveal the Control Center.

Re: locking orientation
do the same from the top of the screen, under the speaker, for the notification Center sliding down vertically. Yes, but it is not a tap and hold. Touch the screen just above the home button and stay still until the two ascending tones. Slide the finger up the screen vertically. This opens the control center.

If you don't have either of these, I don't know of another way to get to the Control Center other than the 3 finger swipe up after touching the status bar. It does appear that the settings/control center item does not yield anything useful; sorry about that. Perhaps someone has another idea. Perhaps you could open it with Siri. Wayne On 3/11/14, Ray T.

Re: Locking Orientation was RE: searching the app store
Simon, I got this to work earlier today by opening the app switcher and them moving page by page using a three finger horizontal swipe from left to right. Assuming you're using the phone in portrait orientation, place three fingers at the left most corner of the screen above the home button and move them toward the right side of the screen without lifting a finger from the screen. When I did this gesture, there was a progress tone like the one you hear when moving from page to page on a web page. The lock orientation button was on page two at the right most corner of the app switcher. I did have to repeat this gesture more than once in order to get the pages to move forward.
