My iPhone has been getting stuck in landscape mode. Sometimes back out of apps or go into them and I'm still in landscape mode. I wiped the device and it keeps on happening. Has anyone experience this? Thanks in advance.

I've had it do it a couple of times here and there, but never consistently at all, and my experience has been much improved since the first version of iOS 8 in this regard. Mine will usually fix itself if I hold it in landscape mode for a second and then go to normal orientation...

This happens to me and my friends 6+. It is annoying. The only way I can get it to "unstick" is to lock the phone and unlock it.

Very annoying.

It has happened to me but all I have to do is rotate the phone to portrait, back to landscape and then to portrait one more time and the screen goes back to portrait. It doesn't happen frequently though. It's annoying but it's a quick fix for me so not a big deal. If I had to reboot to fix it, I would be really irritated.
