lock to portrait doesnot work on iOS

[takameyer]

I had to enable „Requires full screen“ in the Target General settings (Deployment info)

Do you config it like readme.ME?
You should add the following codes to iOS files,

#import "Orientation.h" // <--- import

@implementation AppDelegate

  // ...

  - (UIInterfaceOrientationMask)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow *)window {
    return [Orientation getOrientation];
  }

@end

[chrismang]

Try this configuration in AppDelegate.m:

#import "Orientation.h" // <--- import

@implementation AppDelegate

  // ...

  - (UIInterfaceOrientationMask)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow *)window {
    while ([[UIDevice currentDevice] isGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications]) {
        [[UIDevice currentDevice] endGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications];
    }
  
    return [Orientation getOrientation];
  }

@end

Not work on ipad without "Requires full screen", can I use without this checkbox?

Make sure you have installed Pods
cd ios && pod install

Use:
Orientation.lockToLandscape()
Orientation.lockToPortrait()

In AppDelegate.m
write before @end

- (UIInterfaceOrientationMask)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow ``*)window {
while ([[UIDevice currentDevice] isGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications]) {
[[UIDevice currentDevice] endGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications];
}

return [Orientation getOrientation];
}

@paulxuca Thanks a lot. Now it works as expected.

Make sure you have installed Pods cd ios && pod install

Use: Orientation.lockToLandscape() Orientation.lockToPortrait()

In AppDelegate.m write before @end

- (UIInterfaceOrientationMask)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow*)window { `` while ([[UIDevice currentDevice] isGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications]) { ` [[UIDevice currentDevice] endGeneratingDeviceOrientationNotifications];` ` }`

return [Orientation getOrientation]; }

finally got the correct answer. !!!
Thank you

It worked for me 🎉. Thanks you rock @wonday

I'm having the same problem. AppDelegate.m is correctly configured. I'm receiving the events that the orientation has changed, but it will not lock. Can you provide an example where locking to portrait mode works?

[Thanmai-C]

@wonday @takameyer Any solution to lock to portrait on iOS?

[Thanmai-C]

But still it doesn't work for me.
@wonday doesn't work on iOS?

[wonday]

After install, just call

import Orientation from 'react-native-orientation-locker';
...
Orientation.lockToPortrait();

My App work fine on Android and iOS.

[ZeroCool00]

Any solution yet? locktoLandscape also not working in ios. Android is fine

[wonday]

I have an example that uses it, you can see the project setting and usage.

I have this problem too, Orientation.lockToPortrait() is working on IOS, but if the iPhone already in landscape and I open app, the app is rotate in the start up before it run Orientation.lockToPortrait(), so the component in my app render wrong, it be come bigger because I use device width to calculate the size of component. Ex: while watching youtube video in landscape, my app has a notification and then I click on notification while playing video in landscape.

@Theng

I have a fork of this repo which adds functionality to try to fix that: https://github.com/paulxuca/react-native-orientation-locker

Please let me know if that works and I'll open a PR here!

[wonday]

@paulxuca
Your fork seems no problem, can you send a PR to me?

[paulxuca]

Cool! Thank you.

[Theng]

@paulxuca for me this is still not working, do I need to do something to my code or just change to your repo, this is the app I am working on https://streamable.com/5d72o , 1st I open it in portrait which working as I expected , 2nd I rotate iPhone to landscape then open the app, as you can see in video on the Launch screen it rotate then the component become bigger.

[ShantiRanjanDas]

It is also not working in my case @Theng , I am using your fork. Still not able to lock app in portrait mode, While its gets launched first time.

@chrismang your code works for locking, but device orientation listener stops working in my case
