This is functionality they should build into every phone. When a change in screen orientation is detected, an icon momentarily appears that let you switch the screen to match the orientation.

  2. Better if you could choose the default action to be auto-rotate or maintain orientation. I’d go with maintain, as that is only rarely my preference, and would then only need to rarely pay attention, and press a button.

  4. Andy Dillon: Er, you can.  Pull down the right-hand pull-down menu.  In new Android versions (I’m not sure if it appeared in 4.2.2 or 5.0.0), then also tap on the ‘Settings’ icon.  Then, tap on ‘Auto-rotate’.
