Great response here Chris!

I’ve gotten a lot of pushback on stuff like the loading screen. I guess you could argue that it’s not completely necessary.

But why make a way to do it, then remove that ability quietly, then don’t answer people when they ask about it in your developer forums!? Its maddening. I wasted a good deal of time making 9 different sized images to meet the requirements of their manifesto only to be ignored.

For some reason, being the perfectionist that I am, I see app loading screens as some really nice polish though.

Also, I’m using Expo to push updates to the medical app I mention over the wire and its awesome.
