Screen rotation is the setting that decides whether a game follows your hand when you turn the phone. If a slot or fish game stays upright when you want it wide, the cause is almost always one of four things on the phone, not the lobby. This page walks through them in order, so you can fix the problem before your next session in the phone’s browser. For the wider set of phone settings, start at the playing PanaloKO in a mobile browser.
The PanaloKO lobby is reached in your phone’s browser and offers English and Tagalog. Whether a given game turns on your phone is something to test on your own device, using the steps below.
Cause 1: the iPhone orientation lock is on
Rotate screen iPhone problems start in Control Center. Apple’s support page for rotating the screen gives three steps, and the lock it names is the Portrait Orientation Lock.
Rotate screen iPhone: the three steps
- Swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen to open Control Center.
- Tap the Portrait Orientation Lock button so it is off.
- Close Control Center and turn the phone sideways.
The game stays upright on an iPhone no matter how you hold it
Cause 2: Auto-rotate is off on Android
Android keeps the switch in two places. Google’s Android Help page on getting around your device names both, and the second path may be worded differently on your phone.
Auto rotate Android: where the switch lives
| Where | What to do |
|---|---|
| Quick Settings | Swipe down, find the Auto-rotate tile, tap it |
| Settings app | Display & touch, then Auto-rotate screen |
Menu names differ by Android version and phone maker. If you cannot find the entry, search Settings for “rotate”.
The browser stays in portrait on an Android phone
Cause 3: the page does not offer landscape mode
Landscape mode is the wide view, and not every page uses it. Apple’s page says that not all apps support rotation, and the same holds for pages in a browser. Before you change any setting, test with a page that you know rotates.
| Test | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Rotate on the browser’s start page | The phone and lock are fine |
| Rotate on the game page | The page may only offer portrait |
Other pages turn, but one game page does not
Cause 4: the phone does not sense the turn
If every page stays upright, the sensor may be the issue. Apple suggests opening the Measure app and using its Level feature to see whether the iPhone detects the change, and restarting the phone if it does not respond.
No page rotates, even with the lock off
Still not working?
Run this short list in order, and stop at the step that fixes it.
- Confirm the lock or Auto-rotate state again, since a restart can leave it changed.
- Test a second page that rotates.
- Close the browser tab and reopen the game page.
- Rule out power settings that change how pages behave, such as Low Power Mode on an iPhone or Android battery saver mode.
- If mobile data is the concern, read what data saver does to a lobby.
Screen rotation check before you start a session
A thirty-second routine saves a stalled round later. Run it each time you change phones or update the system.
| Check | Where |
|---|---|
| Lock state | Control Center on iPhone, Quick Settings on Android |
| A page that rotates | Your browser’s start page |
| Game page | Rotate once before you place a stake |
Menu names differ by OS version and phone maker. If a tile is missing, add it from the Control Center or Quick Settings editor, or search Settings for “rotate”. Apple’s page tells you to close Control Center before turning the phone, so the gesture is not swallowed by the open panel.
