That feature is apparently a big security risk.
...but maybe there’s still hope. The thread suggests that there’s a request for permission in iOS 13. That’s available to the public now. I’ll go test it out and report my findings.
Cool 
If it work please could you Provide instructions how to implement it or will it be implemented in update?
I found an article about the issue over here...
...but the first and only comment says it doesn't work for them. The reply links to a CodePen supporting that statement.
This is a big issue though, because it blocks things like Augmented Reality / Virtual Reality, which is a likely next step for websites. If you can't get the device orientation, it's hard to do those cool 3D things.
There's a reply from the article author that states he was able to get that code to work... Responses – Medium ...but I don't understand what it's about.
I'm going to eat. I'll try building my own test after that. (This data might be useful for Widgets / Apparatuses. But since they're apps, I probably can just use Swift to pull that data.)
Alright, so that was a tasty dinner.
Anyway, yeah, the tutorial is good. I was able to get the permission prompt.
There’s a big reason why I was having trouble – especially when working with Hype. I remembered reading something about how this won’t work without a secure connection. If the page is not using HTTPS, then nothing is going to happen. (At least, that’s how I remembered it.)
I used the Hype Reflect app… nothing. I had it load from Hype’s local web server… nothing. So, I chucked a copy of the test on to my website. BOOM – It worked. Wow!

Anyway, I really gotta get back to work on Widgets. So, if you need more help than that, maybe someone else on the forum can jump in. To be specific, I think @jonathan might find this new information useful, if he doesn’t already know. In order to bring back the Gyroscope feature – which is huge for AV/AR – he’d have to add support for the new permission requirement and he’d have to solve the HTTPS issue.
