How to lock the orientation of your iPhone screen

Posted Aug 31, 2010 at 5:00PM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Tips and Tricks Tags: apple, ios

A great feature for anyone who reads in bed, you can now lock the screen on your iPhone to stay in the portrait orientation and avoid that annoying switch between portrait and landscape you can get in certain situations.

To activate the lock, tap the home button twice, then scroll to the screen on the left, at which point you’ll see a square gray icon with a circular arrow on the far right. Tap this to lock the screen (you’ll see a locked icon in the top right of the display now) and unlock by tapping again.
