Splash is displayed "twice" by design because first the launch image (or launch storyboard) that can't be controlled, it gets hidden by the system whenever it wants. Then we show the splash image that mimics the launch storyboard and we can control.
Your problem is iOS caches the launch storyboard, that only happen while in development, not when installed from app store. If you want to uncache the image you can delete the app, power off the device, power on again and reinstall. If in simulator, do a Reset Contents and Settings. Another way is changing the bundle identifier as the app will then be installed as a new app.
