iPad required launch images

I'm developing a universal iOS app that only supports portrait and upside-down interface orientations. When supplying the launch images in Xcode, I see that I have warnings for landscape orientations, even having only portrait and upside down enabled in device orientations settings. Does this mean that I need to supply landscape launch images anyway? I don't find this clear in Apple's documentation.

Thanks

an iPad app includes at least one launch image in portrait orientation and at least one launch image in landscape orientation.

Launch Images in Landscape Orientation is optional and xCode ignores it if it is not provided in Application.

However, If you are using Xcode5 there will be a folder named Images.xcassets > Launch Images > There will be a blank icon available for iPad Landscape > Right Click on those 1x and 2x icon > Remove Selected Items.

This will remove the warnings that you are having in your case.

Let me know if that helps.

No. These are warnings. Apple would prefer you support all orientations on iPad, and recommend you do, but they do not require it. (Yet)
