presentViewController in AppDelegate with delay in iOS8

Question

So I had a full working solution in iOS7 that displays a LoginViewController via presentViewController in the AppDelegate\'s didFinishLaunching.

Basically I am doing so

Answer 1

You can set the window to an instance of a temporary controller.

self.window.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor]; //do some styling etc.
self.window.rootViewController =  [LoginViewController new]; 
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];

From the set controller (LoginViewController) you can push your real login controller with the desired transition. Once the login sequence is over you can make a transition from the login controller to the default application root view controller.

[UIView transitionWithView:[AppGlobal sharedApp].applicationWindow
  duration:0.75
  options:UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionFlipFromLeft
  animations:^{
   [AppGlobal sharedApp].applicationWindow.rootViewController = [AppRootViewController new];
  } completion:nil];
