In your project target
, go to General
, then in the Development Info
section follow the attached images:
1-Make sure that your app is set to Universal
for the supported devices
2-Chose iPhone and check Portrait.
3-Chose iPad and check Landscape.

Although 9.2 don't have this option. you can still firstly select ipad in "devices" and select orientation, and then select "iphone" and select orientation. Afterwards, you select back to "universal" in devices. The orientation of iphone and ipad will follow what you have selected before. – Richter Dec 05 '19 at 01:52

In Xcode 9.2 have no option for selecting the orientation for ipad and iphone
but we can able to change it in by info.plist whatever orientation we should need.. its much easy too.
Reference : iPhone portrait-only app starts as landscape on iPad

of course, if it´s portrait or landscape doesn´t matter, just change the value. – miniHessel Oct 07 '13 at 11:27
