ABC ~ What this site says is: "Find answers, ask questions, and connect with our community of Apple users from around the world." ...So you shouldn't assume that Apple will address the problem based on what's written in this and other threads. Instead, send Apple your comments about iPhone via this page:

I posted about this last week and reported it to Apple. This has been happening since the first beta releases of iOS 11 that I used. To prevent it from waking in Landscape mode, "put it to sleep" with the side button while your phone is upright and in Portrait mode. If it goes to sleep in Landscape mode, it will wake in Landscape mode. Very frustrating.

Yep. Easily replicated fault. (The following relates to iPhone 6s with the rotation lock off. Occurred so far in iOS 11 releases)

Open, say, safari, rotate to landscape (home button on left) and press side button to send phone to sleep. Wake up will be last landscape orientation.

Do same test with landscape the other way (home on right) send it to sleep and when woken it will be the other landscape orientation.

Other permutations - probably app based - allow it to even wake up upside down.

Oh, and when showing all this to apple support - apparently my phone is the issue and must be rebuilt to fix it. ......with a 45gig cloud storage that I have to buy. A backup to iTunes according to them will keep the fault upon restore.

Similar issues ! Mine is very random. Some days screen rotates and some days it glitch’s so bad I’ll turn off

Phone for soft reset. Ugh. Wish they would fix soon. Probably not worth the expense to them to fix !!

My entire family has this same issue on our iPhone 6s Plus. This is not the first time Apple has messed up screen orientation with an update. They need to get rid of the person continually doing this crap.

Hello,

I have an iPhone 6 and I’m having this problem aswell. I think it has something to do with the new iOS 11 thinking my phone is an iPad or a large screen format iPhone like the 8 plus, but I’m not sure. It just orientates randomly and sometimes gets stuck like that until I have pressed the lock button 3-4 times in portrait mode. I hope apple see all the Me Too upvotes for this problem. Nothing about it in the new update either. If this site does what it sais, this should be addressed soon.

Thank You

I have the 6s plus and have the same issue. When taking photos the photos get shifted as well. You will need to edit the photo to adjust it. A reboot seems to help, but after some time the issue comes back. I hope Apple address this issues soon.

I am having this exact same problem and it's not been fixed nor has anyone from Apple acknowledged it's an actual issue! Very frustrating.

Currently still on iPhone 7 Plus on iOS 11.2.5 and the issue is still persistent.

Mine did get better with an update. Mine has occasional trouble, but its fixed for the most part. Hopefully they will fix yours also. Did you ever try a reset by pressing the home and off button at the same time?

Make sure you are providing this feedback to Apple:

The more people that complain about it, the better the chance that it will be fixed.

Confirming I still have this issue myself - first on on 11.0.1 and now 11.0.2 on my new 8 plus. I moved from Android and this was setup as a "new phone" vs restoring anything from an older device.

It is still a bug in iOS 11.1 Beta 2. The person/people who told Steve B that it was an issue with his phone should be fired.

It may have been put to sleep in landscape mode, and possibly with rotation lock on, you can turn it off in the control center.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, it is not related to the rotation lock setting.

Me too. It is still the same with 11.0.3

It is very frustr
