    <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">

    // Wait for device API libraries to load
    //
    document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);

    // device APIs are available

iOS Quirk

The config.xml file's AutoHideSplashScreen setting must be false. To delay hiding the splash screen for two seconds, add a timer such as the following in the [deviceready](../events/events.deviceready.html) event handler:

    setTimeout(function() {
        navigator.splashscreen.hide();
    }, 2000);
