ios - Using UIImagePickerController in landscape orientation

Question

I am creating an app which is in landscape mode and I am using UIImagePickerController to take photos using iPhone camera in it and I want to create it in landscape mode too.

But as the Apple documention suggests UIImagePickerController does not support landscape orientation, so what should I do to get desired functionality?

Answer 1

If you'd like to use UIImagePickerController in landscape mode, use user1673099's answer, but instead of:

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotate
{
    return NO;
}

use:

- (UIInterfaceOrientationMask)supportedInterfaceOrientations{
    return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape;
}

and then the picker would open in landscape mode:

But make sure you check Portrait in deployment info:
