RE: Locking Orientation

[Debbie Downey]

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!

Debbie,

 

Lock Orientation is in Control Centre. 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.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hello,

 

A friend has gotten their first IPhone and I can't remember how to explain
where to go to lock screen orientation.

RE: Locking orientation on a new iPhone

[Øyvind Lode]

Open the Control Centre by touching the status bar and then flicking up with 
three fingers.
Here you'll find Lock Orientation.

Hi all,
I just got a new iPhone 5s. And I noticed that when I open the mail app, 
orientation changes to landscape. I don't want that.
And I can't remember how to lock orientation. It used to be that you did it 
with the button on the side of the phone, but that does not work now. I have 
looked around in settings, but I'm not finding it. Can someone please refresh 
my memory? Thanks in advance

Re: locking orientation

[David Chittenden]

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.

Re: locking orientation

[Todd W]

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.  I found it
pretty tricky to make happen to begin with, but after a bit of practice I
was able to get fairly consistent.

Re: locking orientation

[Teresa Cochran]

Isn't there some way to reach the control center with one finger? I read 
somewhere about swiping up from the bottom. I think you have to do the 
vO-bypass double-tap-and-hold gesture, which could be just as cumbersome, but 
I'm not sure.

Re: locking orientation

[Sandratomkins]

Hi,
I may be missing something here, but from anywhere in the phone if you touch 
the status bar at the top, four example, where the clock shows the time, and 
then do the three finger flick up, you will open the Control Panel.

Hope this helps,

Re: locking orientation

[Todd W]

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.

I'm coming to this thread late, so I'm sorry if it has already been
noted that to enable the three-finger swipe, the user must first touch
an icon on the screen's status line.

Re: locking orientation

[Todd W]

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.

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

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.

Go to the Control Center, either from Settings, or by touching the status bar 
and doing a 3 finger
swipe up. If you then flick through the items, there will be a lock orientation

double tap to lock.

Re: locking orientation

[Todd W]

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.

Todd

Re: Locking Orientation was RE: searching the app store

[Lisa belville]

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.

RE: Locking orientation

[Ray T. Mahorney]

Re: locking orientation

[David Chittenden]

Go in to the app switcher by double tapping home button.
Three finger swipe left to get to page 2.
Portrait lock is in the lower left corner.
