The phone doesn't seem to want to auto rotate. I have to click the small icon that appears on bottom right every time I rotate phone to make the display rotate.

Also, I can nowhere find the setting for Auto Rotate in Settings or Quick Settings Panel.

I have S24 Ultra and S23 Ultra and both are running One UI 6.1. The issue is only there in S24 Ultra

Ideas?

Edit: I had to restart the phone a couple times, and wait a a couple days before the issue was resolved itself.

Look in your quick settings pull down menu for either portrait or auto rotate. If set in portrait mode it doesn't show as auto rotate in the menu so choose it and set to auto rotate

The icon and option to change rotation itself is missing. Restarted the phone and still no luck.

Do you have a portrait icon?
If you touch it to disable portrait mode the icon changes to auto rotate icon

Hi. Yes I tried but the icon is missing from all the pages and doesn't appear even when I try to edit the tiles.

Hi Deevvv,

Since the auto-rotate icon is missing from the Quick Settings, it could be hidden or accidentally removed. Here's how to check and restore it:

  • Swipe down to open the Quick Settings Panel.
  • Tap on the three vertical dots in the top-right corner and select Edit.
  • Look for the Auto Rotate icon and drag it back into your Quick Settings.
  • Once restored, try tapping it to enable auto-rotation.

Thank you.
