Do I even turn auto rotation on at all? I dont have any need to turn it on. When I watch videos, I don't even turn on the landscape view.

To me the autorotation feature on smartphones is a nuisance.
Other than interrupting me while I am doing something, they consume more battery power.

I only enable auto-rotate when I watch movies or TV shows. Otherwise, I turn off this feature because it can make me feel dizzy when the screen keeps rotating.

I think I do turn to landscape mode when I want to take a snapshot for some clients because they demand for it. I don't normally use landscape mode on my smartphone.

Auto rotation allows wider viewing and utilisation of the full screen when need arises for that matter

I always prefer to read my ebooks on auto rotation. It makes the characters more legible to read clearly than in portrait mode.

That's a great way to make life easier! When you're on the go, it's wise to keep your phone in a quiet mode to avoid the hassle of constantly turning it on.

Most of us prefer to use our phones in a way that works best for us. Turning off auto-rotate is an example of self-awareness and choosing what's best for your daily environment.

The important thing is to use technology in a way that makes you more productive and comfortable. If that makes you more free and focused, then go for it.

Automatic rotation, I believe, is present in every smartphone that is represented by this symbol:







It's especially useful for watching videos by rotating the device horizontally, but something it can also be inconvenient because just a slight movement can cause the display to rotate 90 degrees without our consent.

It's true that turning your device horizontally really helps you watch videos better. It provides a wider perspective and a better viewing experience.

But sometimes, the sudden change in orientation can be annoying, especially when you're using your device for other activities. It also increases battery consumption a bit.

Yes, I have kept it off because even when I don't need it , the screen rotates which causes irritation.

Indeed, what bothers me most about this function is precisely the sudden unwanted change of orientation.
