Key quotes:

  • Also take into account that if your app is being used regularly (i.e
  • your users are opening the app at least once a day) you should reduce this down to the 1-second rule, or even try and remove the need for a splash screen altogether
  • Whatever it is, discuss with the developers what the smallest amount of data your app needs to load in order for it to start working immediately, and get it done right here in the splash screen
  • In this case, you’re going to need to use a loading indicator — a small spinning wheel or progress bar — to keep your users informed that the app is doing something
  • For content which is likely to be different every time a user enters an app (like a food delivery app, or a online marketplace) it would mean that the splash is always going to be “slow” because every time you open the app it will need to load new images
  • If an image is taking a long time to load, you don’t need to hold the user up — you can ignore this error and try reloading it on the next screen.
