Honor View 20: Rotate screen - how to do it

The Honor View 20 is a smartphone from Huawei's subsidiary. The phone runs Android 9.0 Pie by default, though you can update the OS to Android Q. If you want to see the screen in landscape mode, then you can rotate it as you like.

How to rotate the screen of your Honor View 20

When you rotate the Honor View 20, the screen usually rotates automatically with it. So you can rotate an app dynamically if it offers the feature. If this does not work for you, then first check whether the corresponding option is enabled in the settings.

1. To do this, go to "Settings" and then to "Operating aids". Make sure that the "Automatically rotate screen" option is enabled or activate it. Then restart the device so that the option is activated in any case.
2. If this still does not work, it may also be that the app used does not support the function. Therefore, try another app to confirm that it works.
3. If this also does not work, the alignment sensor of your device may be defective. In the settings, go to "HiCare" > "Quick services" and then "More". Here, tap on the "Smart Diagnostics" option and then on "Automatic". Finally, select "Test". Sobald der Test abgeschlossen ist, wird Ihnen angezeigt, ob es einen Fehler auf dem System gibt und ob eine Reparatur notwendig ist.
4. Wenn auch dies nicht hilft, setzen Sie das Gerät auf Werkseinstellungen zurück. Wurden bestimmte Systemdateien gelöscht, dann kann dies die Funktionsweise der Ausrichtung stören.
