Problem showing animation followed by splash in Android

I am developing for iOS and Android. My aim is to play an animation when the app opens and then (after the animation) show a splash screen/image.

I followed this answer, it works fine on iPhone and iPad but not on the Android. On Android, I will get white screen for a while (till the animation is supposed to last).

Can anyone help me out on this? I was considering using ImageView.animate(), will it be the only solution?
