Hi I want to add a GIF file to load for my Splash screen, but it doesn't load, in either of the Splash plugins I have tried, they are the BT Splash plugin and Chris1 Random Splash Plugin. Anyone know how I can add GIF to these plugins. Ideally I need a solution for both iOS and Android. Any help would be much appreciated.

So are you saying no chance of adding a GIF file to the splash plugin? I know I can add png and jpg, but I have an animated GIF file I wanted to use. Comments Hi Smug thanks for getting back to me.

I just didn't use them. So, I suppose you 'could' use them on one of the platforms, but not both. Again, you'll have to test which one; I don't remember...

You know how to do it, because you showed it to me on one of your apps! Comments How about the animated splash screen? That would do the trick. Just load each of the frames.
