Pogue's Basics: Screen rotation lock

More and more these days, people are reading e-books on their phones. I mean, you’ve always got your reading material with you, right?

And a lot of people like to read in bed, or lying on the couch. Trouble is, your phone’s going to rotate the page to keep it upright. Gahhhh!!

I know, I know—first world problem. But there’s an easy fix: Turn on Rotation Lock. On the iPhone, swipe up and tap the rotation lock button. On Android, swipe down and tap the rotation button.

Now the page won’t turn when you do!
