React Native app flashing white after launch screen on iOS 11

Question

We have more than 5 React Native apps published apps, and all app flashes to white between the launch screen and the first screen of the app. This creating wired behaviour and only noticeable on iOS 11.

We are using react-native-router-flux for navigation. I believe this issue is related to react-navigation because apps like UberEATS and Airbnb , which are also developed with React-Native are working fine. These apps have their own navigation library I think.

Anyone else noticed this problem? Any suggestion will be greatly appreciate.

I was able to fix this issue by adding custom splash screen, credits goes to react-native-splash-screen .

This issue is fixed in Xcode 9.2 .
