Any mobile app in 2023 that still has a splash screen. Really?

There are UI guidelines to make apps show something however useless it might be. https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/loading

I guess most developers go for a logo rather than a spinner. Maybe they worry that folk will forget what app they tapped on?

Initially iOS prohibited splash screens and it was just the ported garbage apps that brought them over. I wish Apple would crack down on it because it’s disgusting.
