How to Disable Rotation in React Native

how to disable rotation in React Native?

React Native app is pretty much just a normal iOS application, so you can do it in exactly the same way as you do for all other apps. Simply uncheck (in XCode) the "Landscape Left" and "Landscape Right" as allowed Device Orientations in the General application properties:

React-Native - iOS - disable manuel screen rotation

As you stated, enabling all required rotation modes in the native configuration is necessary for the app to support rotating at all.

Custom rotation logic bound to a certain view is possible to add by using Orientation.lockToPortrait() and Orientation.unlockAllOrientations(). You probably want to bind these function calls to navigation actions or componentWillUnmount and similar component lifecycle events.

How to disable landscape mode in React Native Android dev mode?

Add android:screenOrientation="portrait" to the activity section in android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml file, so that it end up looking like this:

How to disable app rotation in react-native ios without xcode?

You can easily achieve this without xcode, you just have to update the key UISupportedInterfaceOrientations in your projects Info.plist file. Although you won't be able to test it without xcode.

You can search for the key UISupportedInterfaceOrientations in your projects Info.plist file and update the values as below. If you don't see any such key then simply create a new key and values as below:-

<key>UISupportedInterfaceOrientations</key>
<array>
    <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
    <string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft</string>
    <string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight</string>
</array>

This would set the orientation on ios enabled as Portrait, Landscape Right and Landscape Left. If you only want it to Portrait just paste the code below:-

<key>UISupportedInterfaceOrientations</key>
<array>
    <string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
</array>

How to unlock rotation on one screen in react native

You need to set native files as per instructions and Try to do manual linking.

Listen to device orientation changes in React Native applications and programmatically set preferred orientation on a per screen basis. Works on both Android and iOS.

Example:-

import Orientation from 'react-native-orientation'

componentDidMount() {
   Orientation.unlockAllOrientations();
}

componentWillUnmount() {
   Orientation.lockToPortrait();
}

You need to set app delegate as follow in ios

#import "Orientation.h"

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

Android need to set Orientation Package

Implement onConfigurationChanged method in MainActivity.java

import android.content.Intent; // <--- import 
import android.content.res.Configuration; // <--- import 

public class MainActivity extends ReactActivity {
  @Override
  public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig) {
     super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig);
     Intent intent = new Intent("onConfigurationChanged");
     intent.putExtra("newConfig", newConfig);
     this.sendBroadcast(intent);
  }
}
