XCode logs or safari JS console?

"Stuck on splash screen" issues is usually a JS error on startup preventing full execution of launch.

Something should be seen if you used the safari web inspector. There is a caveat though, that safari doesn't capture log events until after the inspector is attached. So to see JS startup logs, you'll need to "refresh" the webview after attaching the web inspector. This can be done by pressing cmd + r while the inspector window is focused.
