Create Splash Screen in Android

Creating a splash screen in an Android app involves designing a screen that is displayed briefly when the app is launched, providing a visual transition before the main content appears. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create a simple splash screen in an Android app:

1. Create Layout File: First, create a layout XML file for your splash screen. This file will define the UI elements displayed on the splash screen. Create a new XML file in your res/layout directory (e.g., activity_splash.xml):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout 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"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".Splash">

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
        android:layout_centerVertical="true"></ImageView>


</RelativeLayout>

import android.content.Intent
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import android.os.Bundle
import android.os.Handler

class Splash : AppCompatActivity() {
    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_splash)

        Handler().postDelayed(Runnable {
            var intent=Intent(this,MainActivity::class.java)
            startActivity(intent)
        },5000)
    }
}
