Why won't my new iPhone 6s rotate into landscape mode?

why won't my new iPhone 6s rotate into landscape mode?

I'm new to iPhone and I can't seem to find anything in Settings or anywhere else which will tell me how to get my phone to go to landscape mode. Di I have a faulty phone or am I doing something wrong?

Swipe up from the bottom to reveal the Control Center and then tap on the last icon at the top.

Welcome to iMore! You probably have rotation lock turned on in control center. Drag up from the bottom of the screen and make sure rotation lock is set to OFF.

Could you two be a little more descriptive with your answers to the OP?

I'm new to Iphone, too. Finally gave up my Galaxy S3 for an Iphone 6s.

I have the same issue. My portrait lock is off, my view is set to standard, not zoom. My phone doesn't do landscape mode on the home screen, or in the health app, like I'm reading about online.

Any ideas?

The iPhone 6s won't do landscape on the home screen - only the Plus model and iPads do that.

The health app I think is portrait only, too.

I think the news app is also portrait only as well.
