Hey guys, sorry for the delay!

I needed to build a splash screen in the JS, so basically, I did a timeout in order to hide the native splash, then I show a SplashScreen with a loading, for iOS the problem is the watchdog, if your splash screen is open for more than 21 seconds(I don't remember the exact time) your app will crash.
