Do apps have to auto rotate?

I was told that apps have to auto rotate or Apple will reject them... does anyone know if this is true? I have some game in mind that auto rotation would ruin..

Thanks

Your game will need to yes. i.e If you have landscape, then only landscape left and landscape right need to be checked, if your game is portrait then you need to check portrait up and portrait down.

It's funny. If it is a Apple requirement to do so…which it is…why does Xcode, much less GameSalad give you the option to turn it off. And it is off by default in GameSalad.

Yeah, it seems silly to force developers to do that anyway. I have a few great ideas that i cannot use with auto rotate on.. Oh well, thanks for the input guys!!!
