How to Allow Photos to Rotate on iPhone 1

Enabling Photo Rotation

To enable photo rotation, you will need to open the Settings app on your device. From there, select Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock and make sure the toggle next to it is switched on. This will allow your device to automatically rotate photos when you turn it from portrait to landscape or vice versa. Additionally, you can open the Control Center by swiping down from the top right corner of the screen and tap on the rotation lock icon (the circular arrow) to toggle it on or off. Doing this will enable or disable automatic rotation for all apps that support it.

Troubleshooting Rotated Images

There are a few possible reasons why your pictures may not be rotating. First, make sure the Auto rotate setting is turned on in the Quick Settings menu. If it’s already on, then the photos may have been taken in portrait or landscape mode, and they won’t rotate automatically. You’ll need to manually rotate them by opening the photo in an editing app or using the image rotation options avaiable in some web browsers. Finally, if you’re viewing a photo on a device with a screen orientation lock (such as an iPhone), then the photo won’t rotate no matter what.

Why Do Pictures Not Rotate When Phone is Turned?

The most likely caue of your pictures not rotating when you turn your phone is that the auto-rotate feature on your device may be disabled. To check and enable this setting, swipe down from the top of the display to access the quick settings and select the auto-rotate icon. If it’s not there, go to Settings > Display > Screen rotation and toggle the auto-rotate option on. This should resolve the issue.

Enabling Auto-Rotation on iPhone Without Control Center

If you want your iPhone to automatically rotate without using the Control Center, you can turn on auto-rotate in the Settings app. To do this, open the Settings app and tap “Display & Brightness.” Then, toggle the “Auto-Lock Rotation” switch to the On position. This will enable auto-rotation on your iPhone so that the screen will rotate as you move it around.
