Hi @RitaSal!


Thank you for reaching out to us here, we'd love to help answer your question.

To get started on turning your portrait orientation lock off, we suggest that you access the Control center by touching the top>right corner of any screen then dragging downward.
Tap the portrait Orientation Lock icon to turn off. If you don't see the portrait orientation icon, use the side switch.


To use the side switch, you will be able to control the portrait orientation lock. From a Home screen, tap Settings icon, then tap general. From the "Use side Switch To" section, tap Lock Rotation.

Let us know if this helps!
