Launch Image/Screen for iOS with Navigation Controller

Question

The final step of my first iphone app (Xcode 6) is to add a launch (splash) screen. I copied a 640x960 (iphone 5 ios8) into my images.xcassets file, into the LauchImage space. I copied into the 2x location (for iPhone Portrait iOS 7,8). I am only running this development app on a single phone so won't need to support all the various screens/sizes.

Apparently, just dragging the image into the .xcassets file/LaunchImage isn't sufficient. I still have only a one sec black screen flash while my app is loading, and no launch screen. Is there another step or two needed here?

thx.

In your app settings General page try setting the Launch Image Source to "Use Asset Catalog".
