In iOS 8, You can look at using the new UIPresentationController class. It gives you better control over the container around your custom view controller presentation (allowing you to correctly add a gesture recogniser of your own).

Here is a link to quite a simple tutorial as well: http://dativestudios.com/blog/2014/06/29/presentation-controllers/

Then add the dimming view tap-to-dismiss:

    UITapGestureRecognizer *singleFingerTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleSingleTap:)];
    [self.dimmingView addGestureRecognizer:singleFingerTap];


- (void)handleSingleTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {
    [self.presentingViewController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
