Viewing in Landscape
Many iPod touch applications let you view the screen in either portrait or landscape
orientation. Rotate iPod touch and the display rotates too, adjusting automatically to
fit the new screen orientation.
You may prefer landscape for viewing webpages in Safari, or when entering text, for
example. Webpages automatically scale to the wider screen in landscape, making the
text and images larger. Similarly, the onscreen keyboard is larger in landscape, which
may help increase your typing speed and accuracy.
The following applications support both portrait and landscape orientation:
Music and Video
Mail
Safari
Notes
Contacts
Stocks
Photos
Calculator
Movies viewed in Video and YouTube appear only in landscape orientation.
Street views in Maps also appear in landscape.
Onscreen Keyboard
Use the onscreen keyboard to enter text, such as contact information and
web addresses.
