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 had a quick look, and cant find a way to detect the auto rotate state.

    What is your end goal out of curiosity? Do you juat want to have a visual notification of autorotate so you can turn it off? Because an alternative would be to automatically turn it on and off.

    I use this:

    When in YouTube, Netflix, etc, it enables autorotate, and when you switch out it disables it again.

      I’m just looking for a visual cue that auto rotate is toggled on or off. Sometimes I lay down sideways and I forget that my auto rotate is on so I have to physically turn my phone around to get back to portrait mode. I know it’s silly really but my Samsung phone doesn’t have an option to display the rotation lock status in the status bar.

      Thanks for the suggestion.
