Answer 1

Swift 3 & 4

Set the supportedInterfaceOrientations property of specific UIViewControllers like this:

class MyViewController: UIViewController {

    var orientations = UIInterfaceOrientationMask.portrait //or what orientation you want
    override var supportedInterfaceOrientations : UIInterfaceOrientationMask {
    get { return self.orientations }
    set { self.orientations = newValue }
    }

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
    }

    //...
}

UPDATE

This solution only works when your viewController is not embedded in UINavigationController, because the orientation inherits from parent viewController.
For this case, you can create a subclass of UINavigationViewController and set these properties on it.
