ScreenLock+ Screen Orientation

A screen orientation lock that actually holds.

ScreenLock+ pins your screen orientation to portrait or landscape and keeps it there - even when auto-rotate is switched off, even when you turn the phone over in bed. One tap locks the screen orientation. One tap gives it back.

FREE, FOREVER
- Screen orientation lock: portrait, landscape, or either one upside down

- A home-screen widget with one-tap orientation buttons

- Your screen orientation lock survives a reboot
- No account, no ads, no tracking, and nothing ever leaves your device

PRO - IF YOU WANT MORE
Per-app screen orientation is the heart of it. Landscape for video, portrait for reading, and back to normal everywhere else - automatically, without touching a setting.

- Per-app rules: YouTube always landscape, your reader always portrait
- Time rules: portrait lock from 10pm, so late-night reading stops flipping
- Charging rules: landscape whenever the phone is on its dock
- Bluetooth rules: landscape the moment your car stereo connects
- Profiles: group rules into Bed, Car or Couch and switch with one tap
- Smart auto: follows how you hold the phone, but only after you have held it there - brief tilts are ignored
- Flat hold: lying the phone on a table stops the screen flip-flopping
- Keep the screen awake while a rule is active - handy for recipes and sheet music
- Back up and restore your rules
- Control it from Tasker or automation apps

Pro is $19.99 once — buy it and it is yours, with no subscription and nothing to renew. If you would rather not commit, it is $1.99 a month with the first month free.

TWO THINGS IT CANNOT DO
We would rather tell you now than have you find out after installing.

An app that forces its own orientation still wins inside that app. ScreenLock+ controls the display, not another app's internal decision.

Android 16 and newer ignores screen orientation locks on large screens, so on tablets and unfolded foldables the lock may not apply. ScreenLock+ tells you when this happens instead of pretending.

ABOUT PERMISSIONS
Display over other apps is how the rotation lock works - the app holds an invisible, empty window that carries your chosen screen orientation. It draws nothing you can see apart from the rotate bubble, and it cannot read your screen.

Usage access is only requested if you create a per-app rule, and only so the app can tell which app is in front. Nearby devices is only requested if you create a Bluetooth rule, and only to read the names of devices you have already paired. No scanning, no location.

Everything you configure stays on your device. There is no account, no server, and no analytics. The only network connection the app makes is to Google Play, for purchases.
