Create the background with logo for Splash Screen insplash_screen.xmlunder res/drawable:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:opacity="opaque">

    <item android:drawable="@color/splash_screen_bg_color" />
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/splash_logo" />

</layer-list>

Create Style for Splash Screen in res/values/styles.xml:

<!-- Splash screen theme -->
<style name="SplashScreenTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.NoActionBar">

<item name="android:windowBackground">@color/splash_screen_bg_color</item>
</style>

**Notes: **If I want to modify styles of Status Bar or Bottom Nav, modify attributes in res/values/style.xml file (Ref: Attributes in styles.xml):

<item name="android:windowFullscreen">true</item>
<item name="android:windowTranslucentNavigation">true</item>

Set style as theme for SplashScreenActivity in AndroidManifest.xml:

<!-- Splash Screen Activity -->
<activity android:name=".activity.SplashScreenActivity"
    android:theme="@style/SplashScreenTheme">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>

AndroidManifest.xml

**Notes: **Make sure comment this line because we want the SplashScreenThemeActivity be the LAUNCHER. Otherwise, it will load MainActivity automatically.

Create a SlashScreenActivity:

public class SplashScreenActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        Intent intent = new Intent(SplashScreenActivity.this, MainActivity.class);
        startActivity(intent);
        finish();
    }
}

**Notes: **As we are loading the splash screen them from manifest. So there is no need to setContentView() with any xml layout.
