How to hide Splash Screen Ionic3 cordova8

Hi,

I am deploying .apk file on android device. Splash screen is being appeared. How to hide it ?
I am using ionic 3.2 with cordova 8.0.0

This is what I have done to hide it but failed.

  1. In config.xml file I have set the preferences as

Screenshot_1

<preference name="ScrollEnabled" value="false" />
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="16" />
<preference name="BackupWebStorage" value="none" />
<preference name="SplashMaintainAspectRatio" value="true" />
<preference name="SplashShowOnlyFirstTime" value="false" />
<preference name="SplashScreen" value="screen" />
<preference name="FadeSplashScreen" value="true" />
<preference name="FadeSplashScreenDuration" value="300" />
<preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="3000" />
<preference name="AutoHideSplashScreen" value="false" />
<preference name="ShowSplashScreen" value="true" />
  1. In app.components.ts file I have added the following in constructor

platform.ready().then(() => {
//splashScreen.hide();
if (this.splashScreen) {
setTimeout(() => {
this.splashScreen.hide();
}, 500);
}

  statusBar.styleDefault();
});

Please help me. What to do to hide Splash Screen ?

The normal code splashScreen.hide() usually is enough to hide the splash screen when the app is loaded and ready. Why did you modify that?

splashScreen.hide() is also not working

White splash screen is being appeared for almost 10 seconds. How to hide that one ?

That is not a splash screen. That is your app being loaded. Somehow your app seems to load really slowly.

How are you building your app?
What are you doing during app start?

I am not doing anything different. Using angular firebase.

Plz download the the code and see if there is something wrong.

No, I won’t do that.

You can answer my questions or hope someone else will help you.

This is a simple code. I am doing nothing special. Just login with angular firebase 2

It is working fine if I create the .apk file in debug mode.
ionic cordova build --prod

But it does take time while loading if I generate .apk file in release mode and sign the .apk
ionic cordova build --release android

Don’t leave --prod of for building the release app:

ionic cordova build android --prod --release
