A Couple of Things

Several weeks back somebody wrote asking about how to lock rotation screen on an iPhone. I can’t seem to find the message now, so I’ll wing it. The ability for the screen to rotate on an iPhone is in the settings. Sometimes, you don’t want your screen to rotate, for whatever reason, and it’s a fairly simple setting.

Following is what I found when I googled it:

To stop an iPhone screen from rotating, you can use the Portrait Orientation Lock feature in the Control Center:

Open the Control Center by swiping down from the top right corner of the screen if your iPhone has Face ID, or swiping up from the bottom of the screen if your iPhone has a Home button.
Tap the Rotation Lock button, which looks like a lock with an arrow around it.

When the Screen Rotation lock icon is red on a white background, the lock is active
You can also double-tap the Home button to open the multitasking window, then tap the Portrait Orientation Lock button.

Some apps don't support rotation, so the screen might not rotate even if Portrait Orientation Lock is off.

Apple Computer
For those of you that like Apple Computers, I want to write about the new Mac Mini. I haven’t used a Mac Mini in years, but I loved it back then. It was powerful, very small, and still upgradable. The new Mac Mini is getting great reviews and the starting price at Best Buy looks to be $549. For a Mac, that’s a great price. I prefer a desktop to a laptop, but that’s just me. My current desktop is actually smaller than a Mac Mini, but it suits me fine and it’s been working great. It’s an ‘off brand’ called a TRIGKEY. There are many of them, and they are mostly cheaper and more powerful than the big names.

Back to the Mac Mini; I read a great review on it HERE. 

​It’s been in the news a lot, if you get nerdy news like me, and it’s been highly touted.
