Android 12 brought a new amazing splash screen API that makes this so much easier. We can quickly create our own custom splash screens with a few lines of code.
It does not require an extra activity, we can use it to load data during the splash screen, we can have an animated icon and we don't need to mess around with themes a lot like we did before.
It was introduced for API level 31, but thanks to a dependency it's downwards compatible as well!

Thank you very much! I've been racking my brain for a long time why it doesn't work, I've been looking through too many tutorials but when you said it was a studio error, and if you re-enter the application, you'll see a splash screen, I understood what was the matter.

@andrewscott1253 2 года назад

Insane would be accurate, I think the new API is so limited and very poorly thought out. It would have been better to leave things as they are rather than enforce this hot mess on us with no proper way to disable it. Its essentially a plain colored screen (no gradients or background images supported yet) with a hole in it into which a small icon / graphic can be shown. Yes it adds animation (which no doubt will often be done poorly) but we could do that anyway in a splash screen activity if we really wanted. This little bit extra comes at the great expense of any flexibility. Now apps loose their individuality, the new splash screen is too brief without extra hack like programming. So now the Splash screen can't even do things like contain a progress indicator, it has essentially become momentary flim flam. Frankly, this represents a giant leap backwards for the sake of uniformity.

@MK-to4et 2 года назад

The actual difference is minimal - if your app didn't have a splash screen (and apps shouldn't if possible IMO) the app icon is briefly shown by default in Android 12 .. that's it .. a pointless animation, I know the app I'm opening I just clicked the icon! The fallout for this is EVERY app that has a custom splash screen and targets sdk 31 will have to migrate as custom splash screens won't play nicely with the mandated splash screen. A new manifest flag to disable the system splash screen giving the developer choice would have been better. This does feel akin to Launch Screen in iOS - it seems feature parity with iOS is more important to Google ... whether anyone asked for these features or not ..

@mike_f 2 года назад

That scaling tip was cool. I fought with that and gave up and ended up using a png with margin around the icon. But the bummer to me is it only seems to work with the stock launcher. My prior splash worked on all launchers. I prefer Nova. I just test with stock. I realize most users are probably just using stock anyway. But after working on the new splash it would be nice to know all users will see it. I've noticed no difference in load time between my old splash and this new one. Wish the branding image worked < 12 but so be it.

@mike_f 2 года назад

@ᐯ❍íÐ not really sure why. I tested on a few custom launchers and none worked. What makes it even worse is how it doesn't even work on an emulator with Google's own launcher on first launch from android studio. You need to kill your app and cold launch it on the emulator.

@shlusiak 2 года назад

Isn't the splash a feature of the launcher launching the activity? As such Android Studio is probably bypassing the launcher and that's why you don't get the splash when launched from there. But also the fact that returning from a child activity to the MainActivity may cause the splash screen to show kind of makes me feel that with this API we can actually do less with less lines of code. :-/

@LamijaSahat Год назад

Thank you for the great video, but i just have one question; how do you add a picture as a splash screen instead of an icon or how do I edit the size and shape of the icon?

@DeceptiveRealities 8 месяцев назад

While I understand that Google wants to make all of Android appear consistent, this crosses the line from what is within their remit to what is in ours. Splash screens are part of the app, not part of the OS. If I want a splash screen that takes up the entire screen with a pretty picture and waits for ten minutes then that's my business, not Google's. If my users hate it, they won't download my app or will uninstall it. Simple. What next? Dictating that we can only use "official" Google colours and layouts in our apps? This, along with the "you need 20 testers for your app" shows just what dark path Google is taking developers down. It's fortunate you can hack and circumvent this ridiculous "splash screen" they've dictated and still put up your own - but for how long?

@arunsivanandan4432 Год назад

#PhilippLackner Nice video. You made it clean and simple by explaining all the steps while implementing it. I have one question though. I understand using the splash screen api, we can eliminate the use of Splash Screen activity which we used to create and customize it a few years back or we can do some network calls or handle some usecase logic. But since we are using this in our landing page, how will you restrict the splash screen from calling again, if the same activity has to be called again due some use case. For example : In landing page (Doing login, plus splash screen got executed) -> Navigated to home page after login successful -> Logging out (Returning back to landing page) - Here when returning back to landing page, the splash screen will be invoked in OnCreate again right ? So how to stop this ? Do we have to use Shared Preferences with a boolean flag ? How do you tackle this situation when using SplashScreenApi ?

@bitwisedevs469 2 года назад

I just use this and upon testing it on multiple device and version, I would say I am correct even at the beginning that this is a half-baked API. Inconsistent behavior and buggy. I hope it gets better or just remove and deprecate it already.

@vahit·keskin Год назад

Can we use image instead of icon? After all, the icon is very small and takes up a limited space.

@ArthurKhazbs 10 месяцев назад

@rishabhone5083 2 года назад

This is definitely much better than the windowBackground method, *But Can we implement SharedElementTransition Animation with this new Splash Api?* The current way I'm using a Splash Screen is, I have a Splash Activity. The App loads with a Dark Background defined with windowBackground, after which the Splash Activity's Layout Inflates, which has a ImageView with the Splash Logo Drawable in the center, and if I'm navigating to the Login Screen, I perform a SharedElement Transition to the LoginActivity's Splash Logo Image. Right now I don't think SharedElementTransitions will be possible with this Api until they allow us to have Custom Layout Xml files to enable SharedElementTransitions. Until then, Happy New Year Phillip

@PhilippLackner 2 года назад

Not possible right now, but that's a quite specific use case 😁 Happy new year too!

@xxxx85 Год назад

My splashscreen has an animation (0.6s long), but the splashscreen cancels before the animation can finish. I understand it's because the app underneath has finished loading. But is there no function built into the API to set the minimum amount of time to wait before going to the post-splashscreen theme? Do I really have to create a new task that runs in a thread to prevent the splashscreen from cutting short?

@KhushbuShah25 Год назад

Hi Phillip, Thanks for this cool video. I have one query related to the new Splash screen API. Currently, I have a separate Splash screen (an older way) in which I read shared preferences to check if a user is logged in or not. If the user is logged in then will launch Home screen of app, and launch the login screen otherwise. How can I do this without separate activity?

@michaelengeser3524 2 года назад

Hey Thank you for this great video :) One question. If I have a second Activity and go back to my MainActivity the SplashScreen is also be shown. What can I do that it only will be displayed at the beginning? Maybe you have an answer for me.

@shlusiak 2 года назад

That's why Google shouldn't make APIs. The SplashScreen shouldn't be tied to the Activity but to the App because it is the loading state of the "App", not the screen, where I'd expect a loading state in the Activity if there is anything to load. But because your MainActivity may be recreated when you return from your child activity, the splash screen is shown again. You can try to make that better by not controlling how long the splash screen is shown in the activity's ViewModel, maybe that makes a difference? It'd be a lie to say this new API fixes anything.

@letoatreides8098 2 года назад

Thanks. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I had to dig around and add the dependencies manually to have the features avaliable, like MutableStateFlow. viewModelScope, viewModels. Is this because I'm using SDK: API 21? If Id use a newer one, the dependencies would already be there? Also, this splash screen, you can't do anything to the design, it will always just be confined to that circle? I'd think the simpler thing would be to just use an activity that shows up at start and design it however you like. And then you're automatically redirected to the main acitivity after 3 seconds. But I'm new to Android development so what do I know?! Thanks for the tutorial!

I think this API is not going to work as it should if the app has more than one activity, if you want to show the splash screen while deciding that you want to stay on the same activity showing this splash screen or moving to another activity like Authentication Activity for example if this is the first use, the transition animation will look very bad.
