    Zxing library uses AVFoundation framework to show live camera layer. This layer(prevLayer) is added on the ZXingWidgetController‘s view layer in initCapture method. So whenever you rotate your camera this layer also rotate. To keep this layer in fixed position you will need to rotate it again by 0, M_PI, -M_PI/2, M_PI/2 in portrait, upsideDown, landscapeRight, landscapeLeft using following rotation transform

    CATransform3D transform =  CATransform3DMakeRotation(angle, 0, 0, 1.0);
self.prevLayer.transform =transform;
self.prevLayer.frame = frame; // you may need to set it also if needed.
