I want my android application to be only run in portrait mode? How can I do that?

Solution

  • In the manifest, set this for all your activities:

    <activity android:name=".YourActivity"
    android:configChanges="orientation"
    android:screenOrientation="portrait"/>

    Let me explain:

    • With android:configChanges="orientation" you tell Android that you will be responsible of the changes of orientation.
    • android:screenOrientation="portrait" you set the default orientation mode.
