How can I lock the screen orientation in React Native?

You can lock the screen orientation in React Native using the ScreenOrientation API from the expo-screen-orientation package.

Can you show me an example of how to implement that?

Sure! First, install the package with expo install expo-screen-orientation. Then, you can use it like this:

import * as ScreenOrientation from 'expo-screen-orientation';

async function lockOrientation() {
  await ScreenOrientation.lockAsync(ScreenOrientation.OrientationLock.PORTRAIT);
}

What if I want to unlock it later?

You can unlock the orientation by calling ScreenOrientation.unlockAsync() when you want to allow the screen to rotate again.
