I am using portable xamarin form in which one the project is IOS porject
In IOS project I want to create splash screen. I added Iphone Launches images and iPad launched images in ios project property.
when i run the application it show default splash screen.
I also try by removing launchscreen tag from info.plist file, when i run application splash screen is displaying but header and footer become black
Please suggest me how to change the splashscreen of the ios project
Thanks in advance.
At first you should know, that the splash screen is just a static image, you can set it by this step:
1 Create a single view application:
2 Going to "info.plist" you can find "launch images", click "Use Asset Catalog":
3 Then remove the "LaunchScreen.storyboard" from your solution, and remove the Key "Launch screen interface file base name" from the info.plist->source:
4 At last set the image you want in "Assets.xcassets":
Oh, another thing, if you need change anything in "Assets.xcassets" you'd batter:
1 Clean your solution and rebuild it;
2 Delete the APP from your device if you already install the old one;
3 Then install the new one, it will works.
Hope it can help you.
Add one xib file and setup your launch screen image in that xib file with UIImageview, and then assign that file to"Launch Screen File"
Check attached screenshot for help.
Hope this helps!
Make sure you are connected to your external Mac. Then double click Launchscreen.storyboard in your iOS-project. You should get a design-view of the Splashscreen.
If you want to put a image to fill any screen size without open Xcode:
Go to your Resources -> LaunchScreen.storyboard file
- Right click to your "LaunchScreen.storyboard" file -> Open Width -> Source Code Editor
Replace your Storyboard code with the following:

- Where you see "background1.png" put the name of your background resource image file that should be located in the Resources Folder of your Xamarin.ios project.
