If there is a specific app that isn’t rotating and rotation lock is disabled, we’re going to recommend some basic steps to get us started. Be sure to test after each step.

1. From the Home Screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle of the screen.
2. Swipe right or left to find the app that you want to close.

2. Restart your iPhone Restart your iPhone
How to restart your iPhone X, 11, 12, 13, or later
1. Press and hold either volume button and the side button until the power-off slider appears.
2. Drag the slider, then wait 30 seconds for your device to turn off. If your device is frozen or unresponsive, force restart your device.
3. To turn your device back on, press and hold the side button (on the right side of your iPhone) until you see the Apple logo.
3. Make note of whether this happens on screen with a list of all your threads, in a specific thread or both.
Thanks.
