Why Tools Should Avoid Splash Screens and Extra Windows

Why Tools Should Avoid Splash Screens and Extra Windows

A Simple Look at Better Software Design for Technicians

Many repair tools still open with a splash screen — that first big image that shows before you even reach the main interface. Some also show a Login / Register window that blocks everything until you enter your details.

But the truth is simple:

✅ Most users don’t want these screens
✅ They slow down work
✅ They don’t add real value

Let’s break down why these screens are unnecessary and how tool developers can make life easier for everyone.

Splash Screens: Do We Still Need Them?

A splash screen is the big picture or animation you see when opening a tool. Years ago, it was common. But today:

• Tools load faster
• Users want speed
• Technicians don’t care about graphics
• Most splash screens waste time

When someone opens a tool to fix a device, they want to start working immediately, not wait 3–5 seconds for an image to disappear.

Login Windows Should Be Inside the Tool, Not Blocking the Start

Many credit-based and server-based tools require login. That’s fine. But showing a full window before the tool opens slows down the workflow.

A better idea is:

✅ The tool opens first
✅ The login happens inside the interface
✅ Or login is auto-saved and runs quietly in the background

Tools like FRT, AMT, and many credit-based platforms could greatly improve speed by adopting this method.

Too Many Tabs and Buttons = Confusion

Some tools show 10 tabs, 40 buttons, and 100 features on the front page.
This looks powerful, but for many technicians, it becomes confusing and distracting.

A simplified interface helps users focus on their actual task.

Example

Instead of showing:

• FRP Qualcomm
• FRP MTK
• FRP SPD
• FRP Samsung
• FRP Misc
• FRP Tools
• FRP Unlock
• FRP Bypass

Just show one button: “FRP”.

Let the tool automatically detect:

• Processor type
• Vendor
• Port name
• Model

This saves time and prevents mistakes.

A Good Example: MFT New Beta

Users who tried the new MFT beta noticed something refreshing:

✅ The tool opens instantly
✅ No splash screen
✅ No login pop-up
✅ Only one clean tab
✅ The tool detects the device automatically

This is exactly the kind of design that technicians appreciate.
It reduces thinking, reduces clicking, and reduces waiting.

Why This Matters

This may sound like a small detail, but for technicians:

• Every second counts
• Simpler interfaces reduce errors
• Faster loading means more work done
• Less confusion = fewer support tickets

The design of a tool directly affects productivity.
