NS + Angular | IOS Simulator stuck on NativeScript Splash or black app screen

[ThijmenL98]

Issue Description

When i try to launch the created app on my ios simulator on my MacBook Pro, it gets stuck on a black screen when opening the app (iPhone) or on the blue NativeScript launch screen (iPad).

The app in question is simply a single screen with an input field, button and a text field that copies the input field text to the text field when clicking the button. The only CSS used is to make the button coloured and the displayed text centered and bold.

Have tried:

• Restarting MacBook Pro
• Restarting Simulator
• Changing Simulator device
• Deleting node_modules folder and running npm install
• Invalidating IntelliJ caches
• Shaking device
• Erasing all content and settings from device

Reproduction

'tns run ios --bundle'

On iPad, after 5-15 minutes, it does sometimes show the app eventually. iPhone keeps a black app screen, then after about a minute, closes the app, restarts and again a black screen.

Also, it does provide the message that it is "successfully synced on device", no errors

Any update on this? I'm experiencing a very similar issue.
