Blank screen for 7-8 sec before home page

When the app runs a blank screen appears for 7-8 sec before the home page.

I guess that this is the standard initial boot time of the app (more details in the linked topic):

Ionic 2 speed up boot time?

So things like boot time, overall performance are all things that are being worked on between ionic2 and angular2. It’s something that Angular 2 is focusing a lot on now, so expect to see this improve as NG2 get’s closer to a final release form. The price we pay for using beta software

I would recommend you to use the SplashScreen plugin to indicate that the app is loading.

It won’t make your app loading faster but at least it’ll provide a feedback to the users.
