iOS 7: Turn off screen rotation
Under iOS 7 you can deactivate the function "rotate screen". Your iPhone or iPad will then no longer automatically align the display. We'll show you how it's done.
How to disable screen rotation on iOS 7
- Drag your finger up from the bottom of the screen to open the Control Center.
- Tap on the symbol with the lock in a circle (see screenshot). The alignment lock is activated as soon as the icon is outlined in white.
- To make the screen rotate again automatically, click the icon again.
