SInce iOS 10.0, my iPad Air 2 gets stuck in landscape mode from time to time and there is no way to rotate except a reboot. This seems to be a bug in iOS 10 that needs to be addressed.
iPad Air 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 10.1.1, null
Hi. There are a couple of suggestions here Re: Screen rotation not working but they may have stopped working with the iOS 10.2 update. It should always be fixed by restarting (power off and back on, not just sleep). According to multiple users, the rotation locking happens randomly, and only affects iPad Air 2. I suspect there's a bug in the firmware for the M8 motion coprocessor, or in the interface between it and generic iOS code. You're the 49th different poster with this problem since iOS 10.1.1 came out.
I have the same problem on an iPad Mini 4 - it's somewhat random however and doesn't happen consistently. I have the latest operating system.
Thanks. Will do so.
I too have an iPad Air 2 and am experiencing the rotation bug. Have posted my feedback via the form as suggested.
it's a joke. You really would think in this day in age that Apple put their #*#*# into gear and correct this issue.
As most others have done I have reported the bug to Apple.
Upgraded to iOS 10.3 on 4/1/17. So far, I have not experience the rotation bug. I will continue monitoring in hopes that it is truly fixed.
Rotation bug getting more frequent. Real pain. Next tablet is Samsung like my wife has.
Sorry to hear that. I haven't had the issue since the April update. I'm on 10.3.2 now and luckily all is still well.
I am also on 10.3.2. I tried Apple chat help, but they were no help and refused to accept that it was a bug.
That stinks. Wondering if it's somehow hardware dependent. I use an iPad Air 2. What's your hardware?
I also use Air 2. Puzzling.
I updated from iOS 10.3.1 via iTunes.
I updated via wifi. I assume I cannot reapply the update via iTunes, and will need to wait for next release?
Diana, hopefully you are on to somethin. I will wait for next update and install it via iTunes. Thanks
Quick Fix seems to work.
Simply hold the device the way the screen is stuck, lock the screen,
wait a few seconds and then turn the screen,
wait a few more seconds and unlock it.
HaHa, I fixed this irritating issue on my Air 2 by upgrading to a 9.7" ipad pro. Maybe that's what Apple thinks is a good enough fix!
