Hi there Frogmommy333,


If your iPhone 11 is not rotating as expected, follow these steps from Rotate the screen on your iPhone or iPod touch (that you've already looked over) to see if they resolve what's happening:

Rotate the screen on an iPhone without a Home button
1. Swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen to open Control Center.
2. Tap the Portrait Orientation Lock button  to make sure that it's off.
3. Turn your iPhone sideways.

If the screen still doesn't rotate, try a different app — like Safari or Messages — which are known to work in landscape mode.

turn off Portrait Orientation lock 


If this continues after following those steps, Apple Support would be the best equipped to assist further. Reach out using this link: Apple Support


Cheers!
