Can I use UIAlertController like this? iOS Design Query -

i have uiviewcontroller users can manage (or edit) core data object: alter dates, add together labels, tick boxes etc.

2 of properties in object require user select alternative list.

as example, think of property called compasspoints , can select either north, east, south, west etc.

what best practice here? ok have button open uialertcontroller, presenting user 4 options , have them take one? or should pushing new uiviewcontroller onto stack, displaying uitableview , inquire user select 1 of rows?

uialertcontroller seems useful way capture info i'm not sure if it's considered bad practice work way.

how users expect select preferred compasspoint in application?

uialertcontroller plenty if back upwards ios 8+ (since available ios 8).
