Landscape Mode ONLY for iPhone or iPad

Launching in Landscape Mode

Applications in iPhone OS normally
launch in portrait mode to match the
orientation of the Home screen. If you
have an application that runs in both
portrait and landscape modes, your
application should always launch in
portrait mode initially and then let
its view controllers rotate the
interface as needed based on the
device’s orientation. If your
application runs in landscape mode
only, however, you must perform the
following steps to make it launch in a
landscape orientation initially.

  • In your application’s Info.plist file, add the UIInterfaceOrientation
    key and set its value to the
    landscape mode. For landscape
    orientations, you can set the value
    of this key to
    UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft
    or
    UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight.

  • Lay out your views in landscape mode and make sure that their
    autoresizing options are set
    correctly.

  • Override your view controller’s shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:
    method and return YES only for the
    desired landscape orientation and NO
    for portrait orientations.
