Android Studio | Waiting some time before the next Activity shows up (Startscreen)

Question

i want that, when i start my App, a startscreen shows of for 3 seconds and then i want the app to jump automaticly to the next Activity.

I am a beginner at Android Studio so it would be nice if you can explain what it does.

I do not have any code refering to this to show you :(

Thanks a lot

Answer 1

Handler handler = new Handler();
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {
  @Override
  public void run() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(CURRRENTACTIVITY.this, YOURSECONDACTIVITY.class);
    startActivity(intent);
    finish();
  }
}, 3000);

add this code to the onCreate or onResume method of your first activity after 3sec it will show up your second activity!
