iOS 9 Splash screen is black
Easy fix. No need to mess with anything. Xcode 7 just prefers the images to be "Universal".
- Click on Assets.xcassets folder
- Click the + sign to Import from Project.
- Select all images
Done. Now your launch screen works and Xcode is happier.
I had the exact problem and had a black launch screen after using Xcode 7, and at first re-adding the images in Launch-Screen.xib worked but it went black again.
I fixed this permanently by moving the images referenced by Launch-Screen.xib into an asset catalog, rather than using the png filenames.
Same problem here after I updated to iOS 9. Re-installing the app from the App Store seems to solve the problem. I guess, it's an iOS 9 glitch.
