You will have to update your AndroidManifest.xml & Info.plist in your App_Resources.

AndroidManifest.xml

Set screenOrientation to portrait on your main activity

Info.plist

Keep only the portrait orientation, remove rest from UISupportedInterfaceOrientations.

UISupportedInterfaceOrientations

  UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait

UISupportedInterfaceOrientations~ipad

  UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait
  UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown

Note: Make sure you run a clean build after these changes.
