SkyGo on iPhone will not go into landscape mode

[Someone1234]

I have used SkyGo many times on my iPhone and always have it in landscape mode but now it refuses to switch into landscape mode making it unusable. Has the app been changed recently and if so, why would you stop allowing landscape mode?

It is working for me on my iPhone so have you tried deleting the app, rebooting your phone then installing the app again.

[Someone1234]

No, but I think that is my next step. I will report back if it starts working after a re-install.

[Someone1234]

Nope, uninstalled, rebooted and re-installed but still doing the same thing 😞

Do other apps work so perhaps the All4 me or the BBC iplayer ?

It turns out that I had Portrait Lock enabled on the iPhone - not sure how I managed to turn that 'feature' on but in any case, it is all working now 👍

Good find @Someone1234 , glad you have it fixed.

Me too, but on an Android. I'm sure I hadn't set the portrait lock myself - does  the app do it automatically? Rubbish if so!
