So I have Tasker and I’m a total novice with it.

I’d like to create a simple task that shows the auto-rotate icon in my status bar when auto-rotate is on. Then when it’s turned back off, make the icon disappear.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I found a way to get/set autorotation: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25864385/changing-android-device-orientation-with-adb

Change “put” to “get” to query.

I don’t know about adding icons. Perhaps it would be acceptable to just always set autorotate off at a certain time, or when you get home?

Personally, I almost always just keep it off, and on the rare occasion I have it on and forget, I just turn it off while my phone is rotated, and it goes back to portrait mode.
