# How to Change Orientation from the Pickcel Console?

> Change screen orientation between landscape, portrait, or custom rotation remotely from the Pickcel console

Use this method when you want to configure orientation remotely from your Pickcel account. This is useful when your screen is placed in landscape, portrait, or needs a custom rotation.

<Note>
  This feature is currently supported only for **Android players**. Support for other player platforms will be rolled out soon.

    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select orientation">
    In the **Update Screen** window, choose one of the following options:

    * **Landscape**: horizontal screen view
    * **Portrait**: vertical screen view
    * **Advanced**: manual rotation setting, use this when your mounting angle doesn't match a standard orientation
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure advanced rotation (optional)">
    If you selected **Advanced**, choose the rotation angle that matches how the screen is physically mounted:

    | Angle    | Result                               |
    | -------- | ------------------------------------ |
    | **0°**   | Default orientation                  |
    | **90°**  | Rotated 90 degrees clockwise         |
    | **180°** | Upside down                          |
    | **270°** | Rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise |
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save changes">
    Click **Update** to save the new orientation settings. The player picks up the change remotely, without needing to touch the device.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Use **Advanced** when the screen looks sideways or upside down and the standard Landscape/Portrait options don't display correctly.
