Does anyone know how to disable the home screen from rotating?
I want auto rotate enabled but NOT for my home screen.

I read in the Galaxy S8 forum that this was induced by the "oreo" update. When I long press on my home screen and tap on Settings, the option to disable rotate is not there.

Thanks!

Galaxy S7
Android version 8.0

The option to rotate or not is there - pull down the shade. But no option to rotate everything except the launcher (the home screen and app drawer). Some launchers may have the ability to set or unset rotation. (And I think Nova Launcher either doesn't rotate or has an option - I can't check at the moment because my phone is in a "there's no Android here" state - I'm working on something.)
