Why is my iPhone 5 screen not changing sides when I turn my phone sideways?

My iPhone 5 screen got wet today because it was raining outside. You know how it changes sides when you watch a netflix movie. Since I came home the screen doesn't change sides. What to do?

The screen might be locked to where it doesn't.double tap the home button, slide to find a little lock, if its closed that means its locked.tap that and if it opens try turning your screen now.

Double click on your home button and your screen will go up. Slide to the right and a button with an arrow going in a circle will pop up, click on it until you make sure there's no lock picture on it and now check/.

  • Video (ex.youtube) won't turn sideways on my iphone 5s? My portiat orientation isn't locked… I tried locking it to see if that would strangely fix the problem… It didn't. I searched through my setting and looked up the problem online… No luck…
  • My iPhone 5 won't turn sideways when I'm on the Youtube app? It works on Safari. I can turn it sideways there and it works but on the Youtube app it won't turn sideways. It just randomly stopped working. Before you answer please note that I did try Portrait Orientation lock on and off but it still didn't work.
  • My iPhone 4S won't turn anything to the sides? Won't turn videos nor my keyboard. It's been like this so ce the IOS 7 update.

  • Iphone 5 screen cracked and back and sides dented? So today i was jogging outside and as smart as i'm i put my iphone 5 in my sports shorts pocket. I was sprinting later and the iphone 5 launched out of my pocket and fell on the floor i picked it up and the lower screen has 3 different cracks and the sides are dented and the back is fairly scratched? Could i get another iphone 5 for free with the apple warranty or would i have to buy i new one? I just want a new one now? It would be great if someone could answer my question.
