auto_orientation

A Flutter plugin to programmatically control device orientation on iOS and Android.
This package is an improved version of the original:
➡️ https://pub.dev/packages/auto_orientation

---

🚀 Features

• Instantly switch between Portrait, Landscape, and Auto modes.
• No need to manually call SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations.
• Supports forceSensor on Android (overrides user's rotation settings, similar to YouTube fullscreen).
• Ideal for video players, games, reading apps, and custom UI scenarios.

---

📦 Installation

Add this to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  auto_orientation: ^<latest-version>

Import the package:

import 'package:auto_orientation/auto_orientation.dart';

---

📲 Usage

🎞 Landscape Modes

AutoOrientation.landscapeLeftMode();
AutoOrientation.landscapeRightMode();

📱 Portrait Modes

AutoOrientation.portraitUpMode();
AutoOrientation.portraitDownMode(); // may not work on some devices

🧭 Auto Modes (Android Only)

Follow device/user rotation preferences:

AutoOrientation.portraitAutoMode();
AutoOrientation.landscapeAutoMode();

Force sensor-based orientation (ignore user rotation preference):

AutoOrientation.portraitAutoMode(forceSensor: true);
AutoOrientation.landscapeAutoMode(forceSensor: true);

🔄 Full Auto Mode

Allow all orientations:

AutoOrientation.fullAutoMode();

---

❗ Important Notes

• Do NOT call SystemChrome.setPreferredOrientations manually. The plugin manages orientation internally to avoid Android auto-rotation issues.

---

📘 Example

A common use case: Flutter video player fullscreen.

@override
void initState() {
  super.initState();
  AutoOrientation.landscapeRightMode(); // switch to fullscreen landscape
}

@override
void dispose() {
  AutoOrientation.portraitUpMode(); // revert to portrait when closed
  super.dispose();
}
