Displaying splash screen for longer than default seconds

Is it possible to display the Default.png for a specified number of seconds? I have a client that wants the splash screen displayed for longer than its current time.

They would like it displayed for 2 - 3 seconds.

No, the default.png is shown while your app starts up.

You can add a new viewcontroller which will display the default.png in the application didFinishLoading.

This way you display the default.png a bit longer.

You should only show the default.png if you are loading data, which could take some time. As the appstore guidelines state, you should not delay starting of you are any longer than necessary.
