I have a welcome screen, home screen and some more screens in my app. The welcome screen have to load first. It was working fine until I added the home screen to the bottom navigator. How to make the welcome screen which in not included in the bottom screen as the first screen to load?

Can you post a screenshot of your component tree with all screens collapsed? It will look something like this:

Thank you for your response, I solved it by bringing the “welcome screen” above the bottom navigator in the component tree.
