Orientation lock in landscape mode not working
When I turn on the orientation lock in landscape mode, it automatically switches to portrait mode, although the iPhone is held horizontally. I know it used to work.

Thank you for your reply. But then it was originally designed to keep the display in the mode it's currently in because I know I used it in landscape mode before. I used it to watch movies laying on my side. It's a pity they removed this option. I hope it comes back.

Sorry, the orientation lock is designed to keep the screen in portrait mode which is why it is switching from landscape back to portrait once activated.
I generally use orientation lock when I'm laying on my side and want it to stay in portrait.
