installed it 5 minutes ago, but looking good so far. no ads, no trial, simple. I was having duh moments all the time. my phone refused to do reverse portrait. the home/back/etc keys are part of the display so there is really no valid reason for this restriction. this app fixed it. 4 stars instead of 5 because it wont make me coffee. now i keep hitting the home (onscreen) button by mistake instead of space. if i could solve that. but thats something else. thanks, btw.

Wow.Had my phone break a couple of weeks ago but its only the top corner so I can still use it as long as my screen autorotates. Yesterday I accessed sensitive info & my phone decided that autorotate was dangerous for my info. Fine. But once it turned off my autorotate I couldn't turn it back on coz it wouldnt rotate in the settings screen to let me press the part of my screen that works. I tried some other apps no luck.This ap does it with flare. So easy & simple. Loved the pull down action. :) Ty so much!

Suitable to use when the phone (without softkey navigation bar) mounted on car holder while using GPS navigator where the charging cable unable to plug from underneath due to limited space available between windscreen and dashboard. With this wonderful app screen can be rotated in reverse portrait mode where charging is allow with the phone position upside down. NOTE: Some phones are not allow to rotate the screen in reverse portrait mode.

Recently my Sony Ericson st18i had water damage then after I got it repaired but camera's and rotation sensor isn't working. So I searched for lot of apps then got this one. This app is perfect and it is designed as I thought it should be "simple and working". It works for me great love it. Thanks man for your hard work and gave us for free. Peace and thanks personally for designing this. Now I can watch movies, use WhatsApp.

Exactly what I needed. It does make a couple of the widgets I have smashed, but they still work. But overall, I love not having to switch over manually to landscape on the home screen (like other apps do). Glad this app is totally free too (unlike another app which only gives you a 7 day trial) Great app.

The app is tiny, a mere 111 KB, and it ALWAYS works. However, it is completely nondiscriminatory in its action. The phone app for instance does not work well with automatic and the video camera will actually stop recording if you tip your device too far, and it only takes about a 60° tip to do it. It needs an exceptions list and a presets table. I love the app but it has not been updated for more than 2 years now and these features are desperately needed. Hope to see some app-specific options.
