Comments on Sideways Mode for Android

★★★★★ Excellent OPEN SOURCE, no ads, auto rotation app. I am using it to rotate an app that normally is locked in portrait only, and now I can force portrait mode. For the few apps that break by forcing the rotation, just add them to the override list. Also doesn't need un-needed permissions. Excellent work! EDIT: I wrote it backwards, add the apps to the override where you want to force rotations for the ones that don't break. Thanks Sam!
★★★★★ Finally. Reverse support on a reverse supported device. Doesnt force one when it should be the other resulting in partial or glitchy draw, All in less than few seconds and more importantly - less button bloat. Took a few tries to figure out specifically: 1) Tick reverse in app settings. 2) Open troublesome or test app - eg. one way portrait. 3) Open drawer and tap auto in notification to reset. 4) Rotate by hand, to default opposite orientation ie. If debugging portrait, rotate to default landscape. 5) Open drawer and tap first button ie closer to icon. 6) Tap lock when screen rotates and enjoy the new ease. May or may not be a battery drainer but now lefthand can be used as often as right. And cables can choose their own orientation. Without random, completely unecessary stress on plug sockets and angles and too many other things.
★★☆☆☆ it is so weird I turn my screen sideways it flips my screen upside down I uninstall it the screen gets stuck that way.. I don't know where to reply to this comment. so I'm going to edit my review. but I managed to solve the problem myself. it wasn't really that big an issue. all I had to do was reset my phone and like the cash from certain applications on my phone. but it is nice to know that if something really did happen at least they have some help with the software 😃
★★☆☆☆ It was one my favorite app. But no longer the case along with the renaming. My primary use case is to allow the apps being upside down for the apps with fixed upright portrait restriction, while still force such apps in portrait mode only. I am using a tablet with on screen navigation buttons, and I want to prevent the screen burn in effect and this app works like a charm until this recent update.
★★☆☆☆ Can't recognize accelerometer
