To get your iPhone to rotate without swiping, you can use the rotation lock feature. This feature allows you to lock the screen orientation in either portrait or landscape mode, depending on your preference.
If you have an iPhone with a Home button, follow these steps:
1. Unlock your iPhone and access the Control Center. To do this, swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen.
2. Look for the rotation lock icon in the Control Center. It is located at the top-right corner of the screen and looks like a lock with a circular arrow around it.
3. If the rotation lock icon is highlighted in white, it means that rotation lock is enabled and your iPhone will not rotate when you tilt it. To disable rotation lock, simply tap on the icon to turn it off. The icon will no longer be highlighted.
4. If the rotation lock icon is not highlighted, rotation lock is disabled and your iPhone will automatically rotate when you tilt it. To enable rotation lock, tap on the icon once. It will become highlighted in white, indicating that rotation lock is now enabled.
If you have an iPhone without a Home button, such as the iPhone X or newer models, the process is slightly different. Follow these steps:
1. Unlock your iPhone and access the Control Center. To do this, swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen.
2. Look for the rotation lock icon in the Control Center, which is located in the same position as mentioned earlier. Tap on the icon to toggle rotation lock on or off. When rotation lock is enabled, the icon will be highlighted in white.
By using the rotation lock feature, you can control the screen orientation on your iPhone without having to swipe. This can be useful in situations where you want to keep the screen fixed in a specific orientation, such as when reading or watching videos.
