Refer to these articles to learn how to rotate the screen on your iPhone or iPod touch, or get help if the feature doesn't work. --> Rotate the screen on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support and Rotate your iPhone screen - Apple Support

- Make sure Portrait Orientation Lock is turned off.

- Some apps don't support rotation, so your screen might not rotate even if Portrait Orientation Lock isn't turned on.
