<p>Hi everybody, <br>
Some days ago I sent a patch for ImageViewer, that adds the use of the accelerometer to rotate images in this activity. <br>
I am maintainer then I can apply this patch, but I want to know your opinion. </p>
<p>Regards, <br>

</div>+1, Maze and Physics both need to provide a toggle option, although sometimes fun, accelerometer input is often impractical, inaccurate, and non obvious in many cases *, though the default state should be up to the activity author.<br>
<br>
* phone size devices are more practicle, but tablet size and up are only good for limited use or in special use cases of the sensor (landscape/portrait detection, movement monitoring, how bumpy is your journey to school, pedometer counting activity/game).<br>
