If you’re like most people, you probably read books in portrait mode on your Kindle. But what if you want to read a book in landscape mode? Here’s how to do it. First, open the book you want to read in Kindle. Next, press and hold down the “left” button on your Kindle keyboard and drag the cursor over to the “page orientation” icon at the top of the screen. When the “page orientation” icon appears, release the left button and select “landscape.” ..
How to Rotate Your Kindle Screen
Open the book you want to read horizontally and tap anywhere at the top of the screen, then tap the “Aa” icon to access the Display Settings menu.
Tap “Layout.”
Then, under Orientation, tap the landscape reading icon.
After a second, the screen will rotate. Tap anywhere outside the menu to go back to your book and read on. Any landscape images will now take up a lot more of the screen, or you can use a bigger text size without breaking up sentences too much.
When you want to rotate your screen back to its regular orientation, return to the “Layout” options and tap the portrait reading icon.
Can You Rotate the Kindle Home Page?
Rotating the screen does not affect the Kindle Home Screen, menus, and other options; they will remain displayed in a portrait orientation. Only when you’re reading a book will text appear horizontally.
