X text won’t rotate
I can’t get the text messages to rotate on my X. All other windows do fine- home screen, google, apps.
Any ideas?
thanks~

Hi Mimi,
Thanks for coming to Apple Support Communities for help today. It sounds like your Messages app isn't rotating to landscape orientation while the rest of your apps will.
When you try to do this are you inside a single message? When you are, landscape mode will bring up a larger handwriting box. Check out: Use message effects with iMessage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch and scroll to "Send a handwritten message". If you are in the list of Conversations, you should be able to go into landscape mode, choose a conversation and reply.
If it's still not working try force closing Messages: How to force an app to close on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch and then restart the iPhone. Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Also be sure that the iPhone is updated to iOS 12.1.4: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Let me know how that goes.
Have a great weekend!
