Forces your device into natural rotation when connected to a dock or charger
A simple app that forces your device into natural rotation when it is placed in a desk dock, a car dock, or (optionally) plugged into a regular charger. This saves you needing to rotate your head for pesky apps that insist on being in the wrong orientation for your dock!
Just launch the app once after installing to set it up and then never worry about it again. When you put the device in a dock the rotation is forced to the correct orientation for your dock and when you take it back out it reverts to your previous settings. No fuss, no hassle.
I've tested this on my Nexus 7 in the official Nexus 7 dock and I've also had reports it works with the Galaxy Nexus as well. Note that some third party docks or wireless chargers aren't recognised by Android as docks, but you can still use the app with them by enabling forced rotation when charging from the settings menu. Please get in touch to let me know if you have problems with your device or dock.

Changes in v1.02:
* Add support for car docks (I don't have one to test on so e-mail me to let me know if it works)
