how do I turn off my portrait lock

I recently downloaded the most recent apple update for my iphone. I do not have the ability to have my screen use the landscape view for any application.

How do I unlock the phone from portrait mode?

iPhone 4S

Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to display the Control Panel. The rotation lock is in the upper right corner.This would be a good time to review the features and use of iOS 7: http://support.apple.com/basics/iphone
