How Do I detect the orientation of the device on iOS?

Question

I have a question on how to detect the device orientation on iOS. I don\'t need to receive change notifications, just the current orientation itself. This seems to be a rath

Answer 1

In Swift 3.0

to get device orientation.

/* return current device orientation.
   This will return UIDeviceOrientationUnknown unless device orientation notifications are being generated. 
*/
UIDevice.current.orientation

to get device orientation from your app

UIApplication.shared.statusBarOrientation
