Splash screen no longer fades on ios 10

Using the latest version of the splashscreen plugin on ios 10, the fading effect doesn't work. I tried both on the simulator and on a real device.

On the simulator, changing the transition option from UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionNone to UIViewAnimationOptionTransitionCrossDissolve creates a fading effect, but on the real device, it doesn't. I was not able to change the code to successfully create a fading effect on a real device.

My config is the following:
<preference name="AutoHideSplashScreen" value="false" />
<preference name="FadeSplashScreen" value="true" />
<preference name="FadeSplashScreenDuration" value="750" />

I trigger the splashscreen to hide using
setTimeout(function () {
navigator.splashscreen.hide();
}, 500);
