I can find a bunch of answers from pre-2014 about removing the launch/splash screen by removing the line "Launch screen interface file base name", but in this project on Xcode 7, there is no such line in my info tab.

Is there any way to remove the launch/splash screen in another way in Xcode 7? This is in Objective-C by the way.

Contrary to an answer I received, you CAN disable the splash/launch screen. To do so:

  1. click on your project

  2. go to General

  3. scroll down to App Icons and Launch Images
  4. Change "Launch Screen File" to whatever your first view controller is, i.e. MainViewController

Your first view controller will now display instead of the Launch Image.
