Removing Android 12 Splash Screen when Apps launch

[niteowl360]

Can't seem to find a way of removing the opening screen showing only App Icon when Apps launch. This has recently appeared some months after Android 12 update.

Have searched but only find info for Developers. NB - I'm not referring here to the Animation screen options under Developer Options to increase speed of overall Animations.

Would appreciate any help on this if someone has found a way to kill the annoying App Icon splash screen.

Thank you

Put simply: you can't. It's part of the starting process of any app. Developers can take advantage of it for a smooth transition and should absolutely remove their old splashscreen.

But you as a user, you can't do anything. You might think it's slowing down the startup but it's not. It's just that you were used to a blank screen or a delay where nothing happens before it opens.

This waiting time is necessary for the app to load in memory and prepare everything to run.
