# Android Configuration

The `config.xml` file controls an app's basic settings that apply across each application and CordovaWebView instance. This section details preferences that only apply to Android builds. See The config.xml File for information on global configuration options.

- `KeepRunning` (boolean, defaults to `true`): Determines whether the application stays running in the background even after a `pause` event fires. Note: setting this to false will not kill the app after a pause event, it will only halt execution of code in the cordova webview while the app is in the background.

      <preference name="KeepRunning" value="false"/>

- `LoadUrlTimeoutValue` (number, default to `20000`, 20 seconds): When loading a page, the amount of time to wait before throwing a timeout error. This example specifies 10 seconds rather than 20:

      <preference name="LoadUrlTimeoutValue" value="10000"/>

- `SplashScreen`: The name of the file minus its extension in the `res/drawable` directory. Various assets must share this common name in various subdirectories.

      <preference name="SplashScreen" value="splash"/>

- `SplashScreenDelay` (number, defaults to `5000`): The amount of time the splash screen image displays.

      <preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="10000"/>

- `InAppBrowserStorageEnabled` (boolean, defaults to `true`): Controls whether pages opened within an InAppBrowser can access the same localStorage and WebSQL storage as pages opened with the default browser.
