Changing ionic's v2 app splash screen

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

Hello!

I’ve followed the instructions on the following link: [SOLVED] App icon+splash issues

The app icon part worked fine. But the splash screen didn’t. Although the command ionic resources really generated the splash screen image files, now when I open the app, instead of showing the Cordova’s default splash screen it shows only a blank screen, and not my splash screen image.

Is there anything else I can do?

PS: Ah yeah, I’ve tested it on Android only.

Well, I’ve managed to fix the problem. You have to explicitly install the Cordova Splashcreen Plugin. To do so, I used the following command seen on https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/reference/cordova-plugin-splashscreen/index.html :

cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-splashscreen

Hope this helps anyone else with the same problem.
