Description

The splash screen on Ipad is not working. When app is started and splash screen is supposed to show, the screen is first rotated and then showing a splash screen for landscape orientation when holding device in portrait orientation. Also, the splash image shown is the Cordova default, not my design.

Using Phonegap Build cli-6.3.0 (4.2.0 / 5.2.1 / 4.4.1) and cordova-plugin-splashscreen 4.0.0.

Android and Iphone 4, 5, 6 all work. The only issue is with Ipad (eg. model A1474 and A1416).

Affected app (#693828) has setting to force portrait orientation:
<preference name="orientation" value="portrait" />
<gap:plugin name="cordova-plugin-splashscreen" source="npm" />

I have tried to include more splash screen images and resolutions and even landscape ones but they all seems to be overridden by this problem.
