Displaying logo for few seconds at application start

Question

I want to display a logo for few seconds before application starts and menu is visible. I want also to use some when it disappears. Should I create a new activity? Can I set it

Answer 1

Delayed execution can be implemented in simplier way:

new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
  // ... Hide splash image and show the real UI
}, 3000)

Also the android standard android.widget.ViewSwitcher class is very usable for this kind of things.
