Hi everyone, I am very new to ReactNative and Expo. My question might be embarrassing but I really don’t know how to make a splash screen for my app which appears before the loading page.
Here is the effect I want: GitHub - react-native-component/react-native-smart-splash-screen: A smart splash screen for React Native apps
I tried to edit ‘loading’ in ‘exp.json’, but there is still a white screen right after I clicked the app icon.
I googled it and everyone asked me to open my project in Xcode to add a splash image, but I don’t know how to open my Expo project in Xcode.
Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you.

Hey Qqqlllyyyy, welcome to Expo!
You shouldn’t have to use Xcode to add a splash image, what are you using to develop your Expo app? This will give me a better understanding of how to help you.
Hi new to RN & Expo. How to create splash-screen in expo? should I load images at my root-level component and consider it as a splash-screen???
Hi @kantharia!
I’ve found you this GitHub issue, where another developer prescribes a method he has used in his apps to implement a splash screen, check it out here: Question: Implementing a splash screen with React Navigation · Issue #156 · react-navigation/react-navigation · GitHub
Also, you can take a look here: https://js.coach/react-native?search=splash for more examples 
I hope this helps!
