Short answer: No.
Long answer: You can target :landscape and :portrait orientations with media queries, and can alter your design for each circumstance.

For my business purpose we have to place Apple TV in portrait mode. How can I create an app that have portrait orientation?.
The concept from an SDK perspective does not exist. None of the rotation-related methods from iOS made it over to tvOS, and for a good reason. With that said, there is still a small segment where it could be useful to have your tvOS application being rendered with more vertical than horizontal space.

I need to set Portrait mode when my application is running in a iPhone and in Landscape mode when running in iPad.
I have change in info.plist but i can't set it for iPad or iPhone.
In your project target, go to General, then in the Development Info section follow the attached images:
1-Make sure that your app is set to Universal for the supported devices
2-Chose iPhone and check Portrait.
3-Chose iPad and check Landscape.
In Xcode 9.2 have no option for selecting the orientation for ipad and iphone
but we can able to change it in by info.plist whatever orientation we should need.. its much easy too.

Just a quick google..
I have created an IPAD application which supports on Portrait orientation. Before uploading on App Store I wanted to sure about my app getting accepted or rejected. Will my application be rejected if it supports only portrait orientation?
You are not required to support both landscape and portrait orientations for an iPad app, although Apple recommends it.
According to Apple's Technical Q&A QA1689 on Supporting orientations for iPad apps:
Q: Which orientations should my iPad application support?
It is strongly recommended that your application support all orientations. This includes portrait, portrait upside-down, landscape left and landscape right.
If it is essential that your application run in only one orientation (for instance, portrait only), then you should:
Launch in your supported orientation, regardless of the current device orientation.
Avoid displaying any UI element that tells people to rotate the device.
Support both variants of an orientation.
Essentially, if you only support one orientation, make sure that your app specifies that it supports the upside-down version of that orientation as well.
I've had multiple apps accepted which only support one orientation.
Application will approved that supports only Portrait orientation. I have developed many application that supports only Portrait orientation.
How to change a launching image to landscape?
I want to set different launching image when device was landscape mode.
so, I made a PNG file (file name : default-LandscapeLeft#2x~iphone.png)
and dragged it in supporting files folder.
and then building and running in device landscape mode.
but I have seen only black screen.
I can't know reason..
I doubt if .plist file was needed to modify..
Please help from advanced guy....
If you are on an iPhone or iPod, and if your app supports both portrait and landscape mode, then iOS always launches it in portrait mode. After it is launched, if the device is in landscape mode, then iOS tells your app to autorotate to landscape mode. This is explained in iOS App Programming Guide: Launching in Landscape Mode.
Do I have to submit both portrait and landscape screenshots?
Is it fine for my app to only support portrait mode?
Enough just a portrait screen shot - I submitted the app like that.
Yes, no worries about that :)
Best of all this document (perhaps you already saw it) tells about all of this.
Portrait mode only should be fine. I have app in app store that supports only portrait mode.
Your screenshots can be in any orientation you want. No specific requirement. Although I think now they have to be 640x960 for iPhone.
You can upload screenshots in what ever orientation you want, and yes its okay to only support portrait mode in your app.
