    I want to lock the orientation of the mobile application ( android and ios ) that i'm developing in portrait mode for some of the pages that i'm showing even if the Screen Rotation option of the device is enabled. In other words - I want to rotate the device and the application to stay unchanged. I'm talking about qml application. I looked at the OrientationSensor from QtSensors but I couldn't find the right way to use it.

    Is what i'm trying to do possible? And how can I do it?

      Hi,
      I have not done for ios app but for Android application you need to modify the AndriodManifest.xml and put this in the activity tag,
      @
      android:screenOrientation="landscape" //or portrait
      @
      also set the permission
      @
      <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SET_ORIENTATION"/>
      @

        If I do this it will affect the whole application, right? I want to affect only some pages from it.

          Right. Well then i guess you need to set the orientation from the java api's.
          May be Qt's Android extras will provide an easier way to do it.
