iPhone & iPad orientation (universal app)

I'm trying to show different orientation depending on device.

On iPhone I want to allow portrait orientation, on iPad I want to allow landscapeleft orientation.

Is that possible?

I tried

- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{

    if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
        return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft);
    }
    else {
        return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait);
    }
}

Add this to your app delegate: (Swift)

func application(application: UIApplication, supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow window: UIWindow?) -> Int {
    if UIDevice.currentDevice().userInterfaceIdiom == .Phone {
        return Int(UIInterfaceOrientationMask.Portrait.rawValue)
    } else {
        return Int(UIInterfaceOrientationMask.LandscapeLeft.rawValue | UIInterfaceOrientationMask.LandscapeRight.rawValue)
    }
}

The code you posted does the job. However you need to add Supported Device Orientations to Info.plist. The easiest way to do this is to select appriopriate settings in Project->Target->Summary->Supported Device Orientations section.
