"Force Landscape" is an Android app that enables users to switch any app to landscape mode easily. With a new Quick Settings tile, you can force landscape until you disable it. It works seamlessly in the launcher and games, providing great convenience for car mounts. Access it quickly by swiping down your status bar, eliminating the need to shake your phone for orientation adjustments. Please note that some devices may be incompatible, and the app requires specific permissions for optimal functionality.

App summary

On Android Nougat or Oreo you can now add new Quick Settings tile and force landscape mode in any app until you turn it off!

•  Works in launcher, and in any game
•  Quick access from any app, just swipe down your status bar
•  Great for car mounts - always landscape, even in launcher
• You don't have to shake your phone anymore to make sure it will turn landscape


Thank you for considering downloading this app! Hope you find it useful, make sure you open setup in launcher first.

If you enjoy this app, make sure you check out my other ones, especially Block Touch.

Please keep in mind that there may be some devices incompatible even though they run Nougat or Oreo (for example some Xiaomi phones). Always research how to customize your Quick Settings menu in your model.

This app requires two important permissions - draw ower apps (this allows it to create a invisible window that enforces phone orientation) and modify system configuration (this allows it to temporarily enable flipping from landscape to reverse landscape).

Wow, this app does exactly what it says. No more, no less. Adds a tile to the drag down menu similar to auto rotate that locks you in landscape mode. Perfect app!
