# Bug Report
## Problem
I need to set device interface orientation to be the following:
- iPhones: portrait only
- iPads: landscape only
I add the following to `config.xml` in order to update `Info.plist`:
```xml
<platform name="ios">
<config-file target="*-Info.plist"
parent="UISupportedInterfaceOrientations">
<array>
<string>UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait</string>
</array>
</config-file>
<config-file target="*-Info.plist"
parent="UISupportedInterfaceOrientations~ipad">
<array>
<string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft</string>
<string>UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight</string>
</array>
</config-file>
</platform>
```
`App-Info.plist` is generated correctly, interface-related options are
included. Nevertheless, UI rotates according to emulator rotation.
### What is expected to happen?
App orientation is fixed according to my requirements: portrait only for
phones, landscape only for tablets.
### What does actually happen?
App orientation does not depend on `config.xml` settings.
## Information
<!-- Include all relevant information that might help understand and
reproduce the problem -->
- It used to work in `cordova-ios` 7.1.1
- It can be reproduced by creating empty Cordova project (`cordova create
MyApp`) and updating `config.xml` accordingly.
- Generated XCode project (`platforms/ios/App.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj`)
contains lined related to interface orientation. These lines override
`Info.plist` configuration. It can be changed in UI, but it is not an
acceptable solution.
