ABOUT
Rotation manager is a tool that lets you choose which application you want to rotate or which one you don't want to rotate. It is a really simple app designed for the least possible power and RAM consumption.

If you want per app inverse, please download the premium version!

FREE VERSION

The permanent notification that appears when you enable Rotation Manager with "Permanent Notification mode" lets you change app specific orientation while you are in an app, without going back to Rotation Manager


Inverse rotation has been implemented





BASIC FEATURES
- Force the orientation of each app to your liking
- Rotate your device freely, without worrying if your apps will change orientation
- Orientation lock
- Forced Auto option
- Forced inverse portrait/landscape
- App-specific orientation
- Option for permanent notification, called Permanent Notification mode

HOW TO USE
The floating button is the global orientation for all the apps. It is a 7-state button and gives you all the orientation possibilities. Long click to enter inverse modes. Then you can select from the list for every app your desired orientation. Your selection will override the default global orientation. If you want only two apps to rotate and all the others to stay at their default, just disable global orientation and then select both Portrait and Landscape for the specific app in the list. After you have selected your desired apps, just click on play and your settings will be in effect.

Βy enabling "Permanent Notification mode" from "Preferences" an invisible permanent notification starts which ensures that the service will not be killed by the OS. Enable it if you have low RAM problems and the orientation service stops.
