Open the quick settings panel. To do this, swipe down from the top of the screen.
Turn on Auto Rotate. This icon is on the far right of your screen, and it will either appear as Portrait, Landscape, or Auto rotate. If the icon appears as Portrait or Landscape, simply tap it to turn on Auto rotate. The icon should now change from a lock to a circular arrow. If the icon already says Auto rotate, this means auto rotate is already turned on (so you can skip this step and go to step 3).
Rotate your phone. Now that auto rotate is turned on, you can simply rotate your phone horizontally or vertically. The orientation of your screen should now change to landscape or portrait, respectively.
Lock the orientation of your screen (optional). If you now want to lock the orientation so that your screen orientation always stays the same, re-open the quick settings panel and tap on the Auto rotate button. The icon will now change to Portrait or Landscape.
Restart your phone (optional). If you followed the above steps and your screen still isn’t rotating properly, you may just want to restart your Android and try again. To do so, simply press and hold the power button for a few seconds until you see a pop-up menu. Now tap Restart.
