In this blog, we are going to fix application white launch screen issue. Let take the example of youtube application where the user launches youtube application there is youtube icon appear instead of SplashScreen and then user redirect to the main page in between their is no splash Screen exit so we are going to achieve the same in this blog.

Make windowDisablePreview false in your style.xml

<item name="android:windowDisablePreview">false</item>

1	<item name="android:windowDisablePreview">false</item>

2. Create layer-list and add image src in your bitmap tab inside the layer-list.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:opacity="opaque">
    <item android:drawable="@android:color/white" />
    <item
        android:id="@+id/selected"
        android:drawable="@android:color/transparent"
        android:state_selected="true" />

    <item
        android:id="@+id/usual"
        android:drawable="@color/md_white_1000" />

    <item>
        <animated-selector
            android:fromId="@id/selected"
            android:toId="@id/usual"
            tools:targetApi="lollipop" />
    </item>
    <item>
        <bitmap
            android:gravity="center"
            android:src="@drawable/launcher_splash" />
    </item>
</layer-list>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

android:opacity="opaque">

<item

android:id="@+id/selected"

android:drawable="@android:color/transparent"

android:state_selected="true" />

<item

android:id="@+id/usual"

android:drawable="@color/md_white_1000" />

<item>

<animated-selector

android:fromId="@id/selected"

android:toId="@id/usual"

tools:targetApi="lollipop" />

</item>

<item>

<bitmap

android:gravity="center"

android:src="@drawable/launcher_splash" />

</item>

</layer-list>

3. Add windowBackground in your style.xml.

<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/splash_screen_backgroud</item>

1	<item name="android:windowBackground">@drawable/splash_screen_backgroud</item>
