I’m working on migrating my app from Flutter to Kotlin, in Flutter I have the pluggin flutter_native_splash and everything works fine.

Now on Kotlin without implementing anything on AND 13 I can see a splashscreen, white background and my logo (expandend and pixelated) but I don’t want just that. On EMUI 12 (AND 11 I believe) I just see a white splash (no logo)

So I’m trying to implement the SplashScreen API androidx.core:core-splashscreen:1.0.1 following this guide (and other resources on Youtube) https://developer.android.com/develop/ui/views/launch/splash-screen but I don’t see any changes.

I have the following pieces:

gradle

implementation "androidx.core:core-splashscreen:1.0.1"

themes.xml

<style name="Theme.Hormiga.SplashScreen" parent="Theme.Hormiga.NoActionBar">
    <item name="windowSplashScreenIconBackgroundColor">@color/hormiga_green</item>
    <item name="windowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon">@drawable/splash_screen</item>
    <item name="postSplashScreenTheme">@style/Theme.Hormiga.NoActionBar</item>
</style>

For windowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon I tried a PNG also.

AndroidManifest.xml

    <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:theme="@style/Theme.Hormiga.SplashScreen"
        android:exported="true">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

Also tried to set the splash theme at application level, no difference.

MainActivity

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    installSplashScreen()
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

    //other code
}

Also tried to use installSplashScreen() after super.onCreate(savedInstance) with no difference.

drawable/splashscreen

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <item
        android:width="@dimen/splash_screen_icon_size"
        android:height="@dimen/splash_screen_icon_size"
        android:drawable="@drawable/logo"
        android:gravity="center" />
</layer-list>

TLDR: How can I implement SplashScreen API to customize the splashscreen both pre and post Android 12?
