In my working application (iOS 7.0.1), UIDeviceOrientationDidChangeNotification is called.

Now when i run this application in iOS 8.0 UIDeviceOrientationDidChangeNotification is not getting called.

Tried a lot but no luck.

EDIT-1:

I have use below code to add observer for orientation change. Works perfect in iOS 7. No luck for iOS 8.

[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(deviceOrientationDidChange:) name:UIDeviceOrientationDidChangeNotification object:nil];

In my case, after lot of searches I found that I'd made a silly mistake, that my device potrait orientation lock is on.

Please confirm the device orientation lock off in the settings.

This may help someone.
