Power Apps On Start: Goodbye Navigate, Hello App.StartScreen

#PowerApps Power Apps gives us a property called the App On Start which allows us to put in formulas which will run when our apps are initially launched. There are several use cases which we might use the App On Start in Power Apps like caching data to use throughout our apps and a technique called deep linking which involves passing parameters into Power Apps with the Param() function and most commonly using the Navigate function to route to a particular screen depending on the parameter that is passed. But there's a problem with the On Start in Power Apps and specifically with using the Navigate function in the On Start, it's imperative and it really can kill your performance. In this video, I outline a brand new property that Microsoft just released for Power Apps called the App Start Screen. This gives us a declarative way to programmatically tell Power Apps which screen we want to show at the start of our app. I'm going to break down all of the details of this new property and what you need to do to start using it in your Power Apps.
