Is there anyway to turn off the landscape (horizontal) version of the screen lock so the screen appears in portrait (vertical) mode ALL the time? Horizontal looks terrible, almost as if there is a glitch, and you can't see as much of your notifications (not as efficient use of screen space).
iOS 11.0.1, iPhone SE
Yes -- use orientation lock. While holding the phone in portrait orientation, open Control Center (slide up with one finger starting below the bottom of the home screen) and tap the orientation lock icon (padlock with semi-circular arrow around it).
Are you saying that you have an iPhone SE running iOS 11.0.1 and the lock screen is horizontal? If so, that isn't normal and shouldn't be possible. I haven't heard of anyone else with that issue -- although it is possible that I have missed that.
FoxFifth,
Here are the steps to reproduce it:
1. Turn off Touch ID & Passcodes
2. Open an app that uses Landscape mode (e.g. Mail)
3. Position your phone so it goes to Landscape Mode
4. Either let it go to sleep or push the side button to make it go to sleep
5. Raise to wake or hit the Home button to wake up the phone
The lock screen will appear in Landscape mode. This makes it very hard to quickly access the Control Center by swiping up (e.g. access the Camera quickly).
That's not a viable solution seeing as how that would apply universally. I'm just wanting the lock screen to be the way it was, with no landscape. I do not want everything to be locked.
Yes.
This is what I get
Disable landscape (horizontal) screen lock?
