See the following from Rotate the screen on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support (but turn Orientation Lock on instead of off)


Rotate the screen on an iPhone without a Home button

  1. Swipe down from the top-right corner of your screen to open Control Center.
  2. Tap the Portrait Orientation Lock button  to make sure that it's off.
  3. Turn your iPhone sideways.

If the screen still doesn't rotate, try a different app — like Safari or Messages — which are known to work in landscape mode.
