Rotation Control Live

Your phone decides when to rotate. This app lets you decide instead. Pick portrait, landscape, portrait flipped or landscape flipped, and your screen stays there until you switch it off. One switch turns the lock on and off. Four cards choose the direction. That is the whole app. WORKS WHERE THE BUILT-IN LOCK STOPS Android's own rotation lock only holds your screen the way you are already holding it, and it gives up the moment you reach your home screen. Rotation Control keeps a single invisible dot on screen, and that dot is what holds your orientation. It reaches your home screen, your lock screen, and apps that would otherwise force their own direction. SIMPLE BY DESIGN • One switch for on and off • Four orientations, including upside down portrait, which Android never offers you • Remembers your last orientation, so switching back on returns you where you were • No account, no ads, no tracking REACH IT WITHOUT OPENING THE APP • Controls in your notification shade • A one row widget for your home screen • A Quick Settings tile that steps through the modes with each tap MADE TO LOOK RIGHT Light theme, dark theme, or follow your phone. Your choice, in Settings. WHAT IT CANNOT DO A few apps take the whole screen for themselves and still set their own orientation. Video players and some games do this. Everything else follows what you pick here. We would rather tell you now than let you find out later. PERMISSIONS, AND WHY EACH ONE Display over other apps. This is the invisible dot that holds your screen. Without it, a lock cannot reach your home screen or the apps that override it. Modify system settings. This is how the app switches auto rotate back on when you turn the lock off, so off really means your screen is free again. Notification. While the lock is on, Android requires an ongoing notification. It doubles as your control panel, so it earns its place. Switch the lock off and it goes away. Rotation Control does not collect anything, does not send anything anywhere, and does not need an internet connection.
