I have a splash screen which appears for a few seconds before the application home screen is loaded. And then the home screen is pushed in.
But I need to fade out the splash screen before the home screen appears.
Any idea how to do that??
Yeah, you should do two things:
push application home screen, and after that push splash screen
inside splash screen before close start png "animation" with growing transparency (image should be size of screen)

This is how the Splash Screen for iPhone X looks like:
After UI renders, the problem disappire:
The problem starts after I use UseSafeArea="true" at some other pages.
xmlns:ios="clr-namespace:Xamarin.Forms.PlatformConfiguration.iOSSpecific;assembly=Xamarin.Forms.Core"
ios:Page.UseSafeArea="true"
But I didn't touched the MainPage.
I explicitly set ios:Page.UseSafeArea="false" but it didn't help.
Any idea how to fix the Splash Screen?
Googling didn't helped.
Your launch screen whether has UseSafeArea="true".
I have all necessary scales in my project:
However, when I start my app, it doesn't seem to pick the best scaled Splash Screen. I'm starting in Release x86. It's always using the scale-100 splashscreen.
I used the right names for the SplashScreens and they are in the folder "Assets" in my project:
Do I have to 'activate' an option to enable the usage of variable Splash Screens? Or why does it always pick a Splash Screen that's too small?
The reason Windows is using the scale-100 asset in your case is because your desktop environment is set to 100% scaling. There's no need for it to use a higher-resolution asset because of this. But that's not the reason why your asset isn't stretching to fill the window.
Splash screens in Windows Store apps (including UWP apps) are unlike most conventional splash screens in that their images aren't full screen images. Usually, what you put in a splash screen image for a UWP app is the app icon or logo, which is then centered on the variable-sized window and superimposed over an optional background color, rather than itself stretched (since windows can be of arbitrary size, whereas your splash screen image may require a specific aspect ratio to display correctly). From Guidelines for splash screens:
Putting an image and background color together to form the splash screen helps the splash screen look good regardless of the form factor of the device your app is installed on. When the splash screen is displayed, only the size of the background changes to compensate for a variety of screen sizes. Your image always remains intact.
If you really need to display a full-screen image instead of the small splash screen, you can fully omit these images and use an extended splash screen.
I have a NS app which uses a drawer (http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/nativescript-ui/Controls/NativeScript/SideDrawer/overview) as navigation.
One odd thing I noticed is that if rotate the device landscape and then back to potrait, the drawer's main content gets cut to the point that was visible while the device was in landscape mode. This only happens in iOS. It seems that the drawer content does not redraw after rotating back to portrait. If I navigate to another view (where the drawer is loaded again) everything looks good.
Steps to reproduce:
load the view
open the drawer - everything looks good
close the drawer
rotate device in landscape
rotate back in portrait
open drawer - the content is cut up to the point equivalent of the width of the device (the portion that would be visible when the device is in landscape mode)
Has anyone experienced this issue? Any ideas on how to solve it?
Thank you.

I have written a windows phone application. When the application starts up it shows the splash screen which is cool and i can change the image. But is there a way to add a loading animation like those dots moving across the screen.
It would be nice if i can add one of those animation in the splash screen. Can it be done. if yes please add in your answers.
As of right now there is no way to replace the loading image that shows up with an animation. Although there are workarounds:
Remove the image all together. Might want to be careful though because Microsoft requires that the application show some kind of feedback to the user within a few seconds of launching the app. Use this only if your app loads really fast.
Display a snap shot of the loading screen as an image so when the app does load you can show an animation with the same background image and it appears that its the same loading screen.
In your case I would recommend using a popup control with a loading animation inside (Option 2). To learn how to create a popup go here. Or if you want a well documented popup I know telerik has there own version as well.
Next place the loading message in a textblock or put your own image and animation inside of the popup. Obviously the easiest animation would be to use the Performance Progress Bar in the silverlight toolkit.
Now what you'll want to do is set the popup opened by default. Whenever your processing is done all you have to do is set the popup visibility to hidden in your C# code.
