how to animate the image in splash screen in maui?

Hello,

I want to implement it in android (ios is possible?)

For Android, I refer this splash screen to add animate in the splash screen. You can add animation in the native android platform by animated-vector.

Then create a style, add your animation to the style.xml(you can create it by youself) in values folder.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<resources>
  <style name="AppTheme.Starting" parent="Theme.SplashScreen.IconBackground">
    <item name="android:windowSplashScreenAnimatedIcon">@drawable/animated_face</item>   
    <item name="postSplashScreenTheme">@style/AppTheme</item>
  </style>

 <style name="AppTheme" parent="Maui.SplashTheme">
    <item name="android:windowSplashScreenBackground">@color/colorPrimary</item>
    <item name="android:windowLightStatusBar">true</item>
  </style>
</resources>

In the end, open your MainActivity.cs, change Theme = "@style/AppTheme.Starting" add 3 sceonds delay.

[Activity(Theme = "@style/AppTheme.Starting", MainLauncher = true, ConfigurationChanges = ConfigChanges.ScreenSize | ConfigChanges.Orientation | ConfigChanges.UiMode | ConfigChanges.ScreenLayout | ConfigChanges.SmallestScreenSize | ConfigChanges.Density)]
public class MainActivity: MauiAppCompatActivity
{
    protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
    {
        AndroidX.Core.SplashScreen.SplashScreen.InstallSplashScreen(this);

        base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
   
       System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000);

    }
}

For iOS, iOS do not allow animation in the splash screen.
