How to rotate screen on roblox mobile

After some time spent in the game, you lose control of the camera and cannot rotate it. This bug is especially common when playing on phones and tablets. And although it is already more than 1 year old, the control problem has not yet been solved. There are several ways to help you eliminate and fix the Roblox camera rotation bug, which we will cover in this guide.

Ways to Fix Problems With the Camera in Roblox

1. Open and close the main menu. You need to click on the Roblox icon and back. If that doesn’t help, exit the game and start again.

2. Change camera settings. Go to the Roblox settings, open the Settings tab and change the Camera Mode settings. You may need to restart the game.

3. Reset settings. In some cases, a complete reset helps. To do this, enter the settings and click the Reset Character button.

4. You are in a game with the camera follow mode attached. The developers of some games in Roblox can create games and link the camera mode in them to a specific one. In this case, you will not be able to switch between Classic and Follow mode.

  • In Classic Mode, the camera stays fixed in one place unless manually changed. To change the viewpoint of your avatar, hold the right mouse button and drag it.
  • In Follow mode, the camera will rotate with your avatar as you move left or right to keep your targets in view.

5. Uninstall and reinstall the game. This option should only be used if nothing else helps.

6. Problem with the mouse. There may be a problem with the mouse. In this case, it is necessary to replace it and test the performance of the camera.

7. Switch to the English keyboard layout. If you’re playing on a phone or tablet, try changing your keyboard layout to English and using that only when playing Roblox.

8. Turn off the joystick. If you have a joystick connected, try disabling it.

We hope this helps.

On phones and tablets, the device orientation can have a profound impact on gameplay. For example, landscape mode is best operated with two thumbs while portrait mode may lend itself to one-finger gameplay.

By default, Roblox games run in landscape mode, allowing the game to switch between landscape “left” and landscape “right” as the player’s device rotates. However, games can be locked to a particular orientation if desired.

Orientation Modes

There are five different orientation modes, including two sensor modes and three locked modes.

Sensor Modes
Landscape Sensor The default Roblox setting in which the game will always appear in landscape mode (no portrait mode) and the device will detect its physical orientation to ensure the game view is always oriented upward.
Sensor The device will detect its physical orientation to ensure the game view is always oriented upward, switching between landscape and portrait mode as needed.
Locked Modes
Landscape Left On devices with a physical home button, it will be to the left of the display. On devices with a virtual home/nav bar, its touch region will be at the bottom of the display.
Landscape Right On devices with a physical home button, it will be to the right of the display. On devices with a virtual home/nav bar, its touch region will be at the bottom of the display.
Portrait On devices with a physical home button, it will be below the display. On devices with a virtual home/nav bar, its touch region will be at the bottom of the display.

Roblox does not include a "portrait upside-down" mode since many devices do not natively support that orientation.

There are three ways to work with device orientation:

Starting Orientation

StarterGui/ScreenOrientation sets the default orientation for a place. Acceptable values include:

  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.LandscapeSensor
  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.Sensor
  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.LandscapeLeft
  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.LandscapeRight
  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.Portrait

Because this property affects all new players who join the game, you can simply set its value in StarterGuiScreenOrientation within Studio.

In-Game Orientation

PlayerGui/ScreenOrientation explicitly changes the game’s orientation for a player. When this property is set to one of the enum/ScreenOrientation|ScreenOrientation enums in a LocalScript, the game will immediately orient itself to match the setting. This can be useful when a game needs to provide a particular experience like locking the view to portrait for a minigame.

PlayerGui/CurrentScreenOrientation gets the current device orientation. Possible values include:

  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.LandscapeLeft
  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.LandscapeRight
  • enum/ScreenOrientation|Enum.ScreenOrientation.Portrait
