I know there's been a million questions about the iPad's orientation at launch cause I've read them all, but here's the thing I don't understand.

Nearly everything says to assume that the iPad is in portrait orientation...

BUT...you can provide a landscape launch image and if it will use it.

So, somewhere, it knows that the device is in landscape...BUT there doesn't seem to be anyplace that I can find out if the landscape image was used at launch time!

I've tried: 

orientation = [UIDevice currentDevice].orientation;
orientation = [UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation;

And they always say portrait...even when it's not.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

  • Thanks, but I've already read these and they don't answer my question. (1) My app already launches in landscape mode and it does use the landscape launch image. (2) I don't want to force it to launch in landscape mode...I just want to know when it does. (3) My launch images and plist are all correct. As I said...the iPad OS knows when it's launching an app in landscape mode because it's using the correct launch image...but I need to know that somehow and every clue to orientation just says Portrait at launch...whether it is or not. There HAS TO BE some way to know correctly. – pizzafilms May 17 '12 at 23:10
