How to prolong the duration of Android loading indicator on the splash screen via code

Is there anyway via code to prolong the duration of the Loading Indicator on the splash screen?

In the Player Settings, I choose large and I also include in a script:

#if (UNITY_ANDROID && !UNITY_EDITOR)
Handheld.SetActivityIndicatorStyle(AndroidActivityIndicatorStyle.Large);
#endif

But no matter which one is done, the loader only appears for a fraction of a second which is not noticeable to the user.

Our android app has a long loading time, so I would like a way of telling the user that something is happening…

I don’t think there is anyway to place something on this splash screen (like a UI element with a message, etc…) for user feedback. Is there**?**

Its probably easier for you to make your own loading screen which is in your first loaded scene. Then you have full control over when you start and stop it without having to mess with the splash (which is fiddly).

There probably is a way to edit the splash as you need but I don’t know it sorry!
