Screen Rotation per App

YouTube wants landscape. Your messenger wants portrait. Android's system rotation lock only gives you one setting for everything — so you're stuck toggling it on and off all day.

This app remembers your preferred orientation for each app individually. Set it once, and that app locks to your chosen orientation every time you open it — automatically.

Set the screen rotation you want for every app.

Screen Orientation per App lets you control screen rotation app by app. Set YouTube to landscape, keep your

reader in portrait, use auto-rotate for maps, or lock a game to the angle that feels right. Save a rule once and

the right rotation is applied automatically when that app opens.
