Mark923 26 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 How about in Preferences a check box toggle option to rotate, or not to rotate? I have notes/lists/recipes that I reference often, and just because I put the my phone down, it rotates. I'd like to stop the rotation from happening. Maybe a long press option on a per note basis, or simply one that is app-wide. Link to comment
Level 5* GrumpyMonkey 4,319 Posted February 29, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted February 29, 2012 a lock icon somewhere at the bottom would be nice. never an issue for me, but i think it is sort of a general problem people face in lots of apps depending on the use case. i always appreciate having the option--in my case especially on pdf readers.

Doesn't your android device support this natively? Both my Samsung Galaxy Tab and my wife's Samsung Galaxy S2 have system wide options in the global menu you pull down from the top (I don't actually know the name of this). My option is called Orientation Lock and her option is called Auto Rotation. Enable my option, or disable her option and we have what you want. Link to comment

Level 5* GrumpyMonkey 4,319 Posted February 29, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted February 29, 2012 stopping the rotation device-wide is a feature i never use, because i am always switching between landscape and portrait. most apps don't bother to give you an option to lock the screen, but it is nice when they do.

Several apps I have offer the app-specific choice of rotating or not. I could really be a happy Evernote Camper if this was implemented. But, hey, not a deal breaker. Link to comment
