I solved this problem.

Documentation: [ionic cordova resources](https://beta.ionicframework.com/docs/cli/cordova-resources)

The problem is the size of the splash screen.

> The source image for splash screens should ideally be at least 2732×2732px and located at resources/splash.png.

Thanks for documentation! 🕶

Are there transparent places for your icon and splash?  
Make sure there are no transparent places in your pictures.

That’s right. the size was the reason and what a shame that ionic doesn’t show proper error!
