There is a known bug in the navigators. The timers do not function in the initial screen. So, if you remove the wait block, the code will work. ---

Yes, you are right. You are executing the code before the screen shows up which means you are navigating to another screen before the splash screen shows up. Practically, open event does not work. 😁 ---
