Ratings and reviews

It works as advertised, but it also drains your battery and heats up your phone. I don't know why it should be doing this. As a background app, it should just be checking to see if one of the apps from its list of apps to set a specific rotation for, is open and it's not already rotating said app. It doesn't need to continually force the rotation (for most apps). So, this app is doing something extra in the background that is really using up the CPU. Hopefully it's not mining bitcoin.

I would have really loved this app if it supported an option to allow both orientations for a specific app. For instance, in case of my Chrome app, I need it to be vertically oriented when I'm holding the phone vertically and be horizontally oriented when holding my phone horizontally, while I don't want to change the orientation of ANY other apps. I hope you're able to add it in the future and then please let me know. In every other regards you're app is great.

This is a really great app and one of the only ones that can force a rotation on individual apps rather than all apps. I like to keep auto-rotation off by default but when I'm driving I like to be able to quickly put my phone on the dash and open Google maps but it won't go to landscape unless I turn off portrait mode on my phone, but this app forces Google Maps to go to landscape without needing to change my phone's rotation settings. It also works on the latest Android Pie.
