Show splash screen instead of snapshot

Question

My issue is with the splash screen shown when the app opens while in suspended mode.

When the app is closed and i open it, i see the Default.png splash screen, which is what i need.

But if i send it to the background and reopen it, i see a snapshot from the last screen i was in, and i want to see the splash screen.

I have even considered forcing the app to quit on when entering background, but i'd rather show a snapshot than do this.

How can i accomplish this?

Thank you.

You can't change the image that is shown when the app starts (Default.png) or enters the foreground (snapshot of previous app state).

Ask yourself, how would showing a splash screen each time the app enters the foreground improve the user experience?

Edit: Here's a guess at a workaround:

Based on your comment below, it sounds like you're saying it would be OK if the user always came back to the main action screen. In the applicationWillResignActive: method, could you check what screen the users is on, and if it's not the main action screen, move back to that screen... the snapshot would be of the main action screen then (maybe!)
