App not responding during views load (On collections)

Hello all,

I am developing an app that contains news, on-demand video's, a tv guide etcetera.

I have an issue that my app does not respond to for example click events when it's loading collections in a table view or a list view.

When it's loading and the user of my app clicks on a view to do something else in the application, it responds only after the listview has loaded it's content.

Is there a way to avoid this? All I could think of is lazy loading, which is already a part of my app.

Sincerely, Patrick van Vuuren
