40 sec is very high latency, so far I have never experienced such a delay in my apps. Is there any API which you are calling during app start ? if so can you check how long it is taking time to execute by checking it on any of the rest client like Postman. ---

As far as my experience is, I’ve faced this scenario and fix it this way: Remove platforms from ionic, ```auto ionic cordova platform rm android ionic cordova platform rm ios ``` then check all your cordoba plugins, and remove the ones you are not using, you can try to add them in bulks and see which one is incrementing the file size/iddle load time then add again the platform ```auto ionic cordova platform add android ``` and build like **–prod** this should reduce load time you can try: ```auto ionic cordova prepare [] ionic cordova compile [] ionic cordova build [] --prod ``` ---

its supposed that ```auto ionic cordova build [] --prod ``` does it every time but, I don’t know why it seems to ignore at least the ```auto ionic cordova prepare [] ``` maybe just use those two and when you update your cordova plugins, to remove an re-add the platform seems to help clean anything that could be cached Also @mukeshsmk is the solution worked for you, place a like (heart) on it so another users can find the right solution when they get to this post 😃 ---
