Floating Rotation

Toggle between portrait and landscape using a floating button

Do you want to be able to change between landscape and portrait without using auto rotation? This app provides a floating button to do this.

Features

• Toggle screen orientation using a floating button or notification

Known Issues

Because of the way Android works, the app has these problems:

• Doesn't work for some apps that control the screen rotation, such as YouTube or the home screen.

• Uninstalling doesn't reset the screen orientation. You can work around this by first setting the default screen orientation in the app.

• May temporarily stop working when the device is low on RAM. (You might notice the notification temporarily disappear.)
