[GitHub] [cordova-ios] breautek commented on issue #946: Hide the startup screen programmatically & Show loading animation on startup screen
breautek commented on issue #946: URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/946#issuecomment-659518005 I know Apple's intention behind storyboards is for you to build a replication of the UI, with content unfilled. I don't think they intend to have animations happening here. They explain their [rationale](https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/ios/visual-design/launch-screen/#:~:text=Every%20app%20must%20supply%20a%20launch%20screen.=To%20accommodate%20the%20screen%20sizes,all%20of%20your%20launch%20screens.) But doing what they suggest is difficult when you don't build your UI with the native tooling, because we aren't using native UI. So I think, the best alternative is to hide the native splashscreen as soon as possible, even if that just simply reveals a web-based splashscreen with a spinner. And I agree this should be documented, and I'll leave this open for this reason. PRs are welcome. This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

breautek commented on issue #946: URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/946#issuecomment-659488146 Sounds like a workaround to the spinner then is a webview-based implementation. The native splashscreen could be hidden after a webview-based splashscreen is loaded in, which has the flexibility of adding whatever what you want. However, I would rather this be handled at the app level, not at the framework level. This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

breautek commented on issue #946: URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/946#issuecomment-659484684 > How to import navigator? `navigator` is an object provided by the webview. Cordova simply just adds onto the object. No import should be necessary. If you're using a framework on top of cordova, you may have to refer to their documentation. > I did not set ShowSplashScreenSpinner to false. When I used cordova-plugin-splashscreen, Spinner was displayed on the splash screen, but now it is not displayed. This may be a bug, but I don't have apple hardware to test with so I'm afraid I won't be helpful here. This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.

breautek commented on issue #946: URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/issues/946#issuecomment-659449172 I'm not sure if this changed in cordova-ios@6 but this is what I do in my apps: config.xml: ```xml ``` This will make it so the splashscreen never disappears until you explicitly tell it to, which you can via javascript: ```js navigator.splashscreen.hide(); ``` This allows you to control when to hide the splash screen. For example in my app, before I show my own UI I first check if the user has stored credentials, and if so load the main screen first. Otherwise load the login screen. Only then I hide the splashscreen. > There should be a loading animation on the initial screen. I think android supports this, but not sure about iOS. Do note that splash screens are images that gets displayed, so there will be a brief period where there is going to be a still image. This is the time between app launch and native code actually executing. While the splashscreen code has been migrated away from the plugin, I believe the [documentation](https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen#preferences) still applies This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
