  • its not possible to stop but, when your device rotate you can get the rotation angle and rotate your UIImageView into back state. – Retro Jul 03 '14 at 09:28
  • @Retro not sure what that means. But anyway, you need to explain what you want more. – Fogmeister Jul 03 '14 at 09:29

OK, it took me a while to work out what you actually wanted.

Your question would be better phrased something like...

I'm trying to make a compass app. Using an image as the compass. Can I keep it pointing in the same direction when the user rotates the device.

The answer to this is yes.

You need to look at using the CoreMotion framework.

JUST A QUICK NOTE

By doing this you are not "preventing it from rotating". You are actually rotating the image on the screen to give the illusion that it is not rotating.

  • I think the question is not about device orientation but about creating a compass image that rotates to always point north. – Fogmeister Jul 03 '14 at 09:38
