Adding landscape to the iPhone isn’t impossible, but it means not doing something else, and right now the many “something elses” are worth a lot more. ![]() Ultimately, every choice comes with a cost. Allowing landscape rotation on the iPhone would push the iPad version back at least another two weeks. By far the majority of requests are for an iPad version. Twice as many things to break.ĬON: Very few people are asking for landscape mode. It’s not a deal-killer, but it’s a worse experience.ĬON: Twice the views to debug. But in landscape, your thumbs are in the wrong place. You can swipe left to show the Page Jumper. On Weekend Read, you can swipe right to get back to the Library. We’d have to substantially rethink this view.ĬON: The gestures are built for portrait. The sample text lets you see in real time what the font will look like. By sacrificing vertical space, we could let the user have letters nearly an inch tall.ĬON: The text options screen is actually a good example of what would need to be rebuilt. PRO: Users could choose even larger fonts. But when you flip that switch, you find that almost everything needs to be rethought and rebuilt, because it was designed for vertical orientation. From the user perspective, it seems like allowing landscape rotation should be as simple as flipping a switch. PRO: With the much-rumored larger iPhones, people might use them more like iPad minis, which are often in landscape mode.ĬON: There aren’t bigger-screen iPhones yet.ĬON: All new graphics, all new headaches. New developer tools make it somewhat easier, but Weekend Read is a much more complex app than FDX Reader, with many more views. PRO: We did landscape mode in the iPhone version of FDX Reader.ĬON: Supporting landscape in FDX Reader was a pain in the ass. ![]() An extra complication is that we’d need to do it for both the smaller iPhone 4 series and the larger iPhone 5s. We would need to extensively test which margins look right for which font size. We can’t just set every block left and move on. In Weekend Read, margins matter a lot for dialogue and transitions. PRO: Lots of other reader apps allow landscape.ĬON: We’re different than most reader apps. So it’s certainly worth looking at the pros and cons of adding landscape support to the iPhone. Just as notably, many reading-style apps support landscape mode. Notably, many of Apple’s own apps eschew landscape mode. As I started going through the apps on my first few screens, I realized that landscape on the iPhone is far from universal. This got me thinking about landscape mode on the iPhone, and the apps that support it. The user disagreed - and threatened a negative review - arguing we should let consumers decide whether they want to rotate scripts to read them in landscape mode. This week, we responded to a plea for landscape mode in Weekend Read by explaining that while it’s not out of the question, we had already tried landscape mode for the iPhone, and found it unsatisfactory. Weekend Read’s support site encourages users to send in feature requests in addition to the usual bug reports. ![]()
