(Android/iOS/Both) Android Describe your issue as precisely as possible I followed the guide customming lauch_screen.png but my app show white screen. "Customize your launch screen by creating a launch_screen.png-file and placing it in an appropriate drawable-folder. Android automatically scales drawable, so you do not necessarily need to provide images for all phone densities. You can create splash screens in the following folders:

drawable-ldpi drawable-mdpi drawable-hdpi drawable-xhdpi drawable-xxhdpi drawable-xxxhdpi"

The same here, please anyone let me know how to launch the launch_screen.png file

[Samwell1996]

you also can add this for IOS if you add current code to Dynamic.swift file, to func createAnimationView

    UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(animationView.frame.size)
    UIImage(named: "Splash.png")?.draw(in: animationView.bounds)

    if let image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext(){
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
      animationView.backgroundColor = UIColor(patternImage: image)
    } else {
        UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
     }

for Android the right way you need add in launch_screen -

  android:background="@drawable/launch_screen"

in my code this looks like

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    tools:context=".MainActivity"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/launch_screen"
  >
    <com.airbnb.lottie.LottieAnimationView
        android:id="@+id/lottie"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:lottie_rawRes="@raw/splash"
        app:lottie_autoPlay="true"
        app:lottie_loop="false"
        />
</LinearLayout>

@Samwell1996 hi, so launch_screen.xml is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
              xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
              xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
              tools:context=".MainActivity"
              android:orientation="vertical"
              android:layout_width="match_parent"
              android:layout_height="match_parent"
              android:background="@color/white"
>
    <com.airbnb.lottie.LottieAnimationView
            android:id="@+id/lottie"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            app:lottie_rawRes="@raw/loading"
            app:lottie_autoPlay="true"
            app:lottie_loop="false"
    />
</LinearLayout>

@Samwell1996 hi, so your launch_screen.xml is

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    tools:context=".MainActivity"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/launch_screen"
  >
    <com.airbnb.lottie.LottieAnimationView
        android:id="@+id/lottie"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        app:lottie_rawRes="@raw/splash"
        app:lottie_autoPlay="true"
        app:lottie_loop="false"
        />
</LinearLayout>

hi @glushkina1 , your json file name must be the same with 'app:lottie_rawRes="@raw/splash"'. So you can change loading.json to splash.json or change app:lottie_rawRes="@raw/splash" to app:lottie_rawRes="@raw/loading". That will resolve your issue

@LightKnight3r hi, sorry for my typo. My code was always @raw/loading . Repo says I need add both files - launch_screen.png and launch_screen.xml . What should I put in launch_screen.png ?

just changing android:background="@color/white" to android:background="@drawable/launch_screen" in your code. And add launch_screen.png to drawable folders

@LightKnight3r thanks a lot! everything works!
