IOS UIImage of launch image for current device - ios

Question

is there way to get launch image as UIImage for current device?
or UIImageView with an image

Answer 1

You just need to get Default.png which will have any #2x applied as necessary.
- (UIImage *)splashImage {
return [UIImage imageNamed:#"Default.png"];
}
If you care about getting the iPhone 5 specific one you need to do a height check:
- (UIImage *)splashImage {
if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height == 568.0){
return [UIImage imageNamed:#"Default-568h.png"];
} else {
return [UIImage imageNamed:name];
}
}

Answer 2

First reduce the name of the launch image using [UIDevice currentDevice] and [UIScreen mainScreen] and then read the image like you would for any other resource image.
[UIImage imageNamed:yourLaunchedImageName];

Answer 3

You can write something like this.
Here we are figuring out what splash image to show (depending on device and scree rotation) and adding it as a subview to our window.
- (void)showSplashImage
{
NSString *imageSuffix = nil;
if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
{
imageSuffix = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height >= 568.0f ? #"-568h#2x" : #"#2x";
}
else
{
UIInterfaceOrientation orientation = [UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation;
imageSuffix = UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait(orientation) ? #"Portrait" : #"-Landscape";
imageSuffix = [UIScreen mainScreen].scale == 2.0 ? [imageSuffix stringByAppendingString:#"#2x~ipad"] : [imageSuffix stringByAppendingString:#"~ipad"];
}
NSString *launchImageName = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"Default%#.png",imageSuffix];
NSMutableString *path = [[NSMutableString alloc]init];
[path setString:[[NSBundle mainBundle] resourcePath]];
[path setString:[path stringByAppendingPathComponent:launchImageName]];
UIImage * splashImage = [[UIImage alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path];
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:splashImage];
imageView.tag = 2;
[self.rootViewController.view addSubview:imageView];
}
