+# Loading Screen Settings
+
+This app allows you to choose the loading screen that's displayed when swapping between apps on Bangle.js.
+
+## Usage
+
+Go to the Launcher, then `Settings`, then `Apps` and click on `Loading Screen` - you can then click to choose the loading screen you'll see.
+
+## Internals
+
+When reloading an app (fast load doesn't display anything), Bangle.js looks for a file called `.loading` (in versions 2v18+)  which should be
+an image. If it doesn't exist, the default `Loading...` screen is displayed. If it does exist and is less than 3 bytes long,
+nothing is displayed, or if it's an image it is displayed, centered.
+
+This app sets that image file accordingly, but you can always upload your own file.
