Force Landscape when orientation is locked

Buyin Brian

I am building a video app. When a user rotates the device to landscape, the video takes over all of the screen and the UI changes.

Is there a way to 'force' landscape layout when the device is in portrait? For example, if the user has orientation lock we want to add a button to enter the landscape mode. The YouTube app has a button that does this.

Yes you can force it using this 2 lines of code, in your viewDidAppear

    let value = UIInterfaceOrientation.landscapeLeft.rawValue
    UIDevice.current.setValue(value, forKey: "orientation")
