Rotation Lock Open Source
Free AppAbout Rotation Lock Open Source
Turn on/off Auto-rotate screen quickly by long pressing search button.
When you are lying on bed. The screen changes to landscape. Have to open system settings to disable Auto-rotate screen. Did you find it is really inconvenient? This app provides a super easy way for switching this setting.
And it provides a state icon to indicate the current setting.

Only locks rotation in "portrait". My phone has that ability already!

Hate it taking up space in notifications but if you hide them you can't tell if it's on or off easily

I am using a macro app to toggle screen rotation with the volume-up button and tried to use this app in order to see the current state (indicator icon) in the notification bar. At first it just worked fine but after a screen lock it stopped showing the changing state. I would be grateful if it can be fixed.

I really love this user-friendly app. However, I'll give this a 5-star if it can auto-start once the phone has rebooted.

Rotation locker locks in landscape, thus ur claim is false and thats a better app w/more options

A great idea but why can you not disable the permanent notification, apps like this just clog up the notification bar and to panel and just ruin it for me. You can disable the notifications manually but then you don't even get a toast telling you if it's locked out not. For me, it's a no.

I was literally lying in bed and irritated at my keyboard going portrait on me. This app works great for what I want it for. Texting in bed. :)
