Remove UIGesturerecognizer from UIObject

Is there a way of completely removing all UIGestureRecognisers from any UIObject such as a UItextView? I tried this but it doesn't work:

[photoView removeGestureRecognizer:[photoView.gestureRecognizers objectAtIndex:0]];

NOTE: I don't want to disable them because I would like to assign other gestures recognizers in future.

If you want to remove all, instead of just:

[photoView removeGestureRecognizer:[photoView.gestureRecognizers objectAtIndex:0]];

You could:

while ([photoView.gestureRecognizers count] > 0)
    [photoView removeGestureRecognizer:[photoView.gestureRecognizers objectAtIndex:0]];

By the way, be aware that some standard text controls will recreate gesture recognizers as you enter and exit editing mode, so you might have to repeat this process accordingly.

Use the below code to stop any Gesture recognizer.

 - (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch
    {

    // return NO when you want to stop.

if ( [gestureRecognizer isMemberOfClass:[UITapGestureRecognizer class]] ) {
        // Return NO for views that don't support Taps
    } else if ( [gestureRecognizer isMemberOfClass:[UISwipeGestureRecognizer class]] ) {
        // Return NO for views that don't support Swipes
    }

    return YES;

}
