Twist Lock Locks Android Screen Orientation for Individual Apps

Android (4.0+): Some apps work better in portrait mode while others work better in landscape mode. Swivel allows you to set a persistent orientation for any app on your Android phone.

YouTube, for example, is almost always better in landscape mode. By default, Android only allows you to set your phone to auto rotate or not. You can customize the orientation of your phone, or even get some admittedly tricky control over individual apps . But these are bad decisions.

Instead, Swivel lets you set a preferred orientation for each application. Not only portrait and landscape, you can even indicate the direction. In fact, you can even set your phone to not auto-rotate, but still set some apps to auto-rotate and override your settings. Careful!
