So I’m trying to load a .png and display it but the iPad and iPhone show a white screen. Here is my code:

```auto

public class Test extends Sprite
    {
        private var loader : Loader;
        private var urlRequest : URLRequest;

        public function Test()
        {
            stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
            stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
            
            loadAssets();
        }

        private function loadAssets() : void
        {
            urlRequest = new URLRequest("TestImage.png");
            loader = new Loader();
            loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);
            loader.load(urlRequest);
        }

        private function onLoadComplete(event : Event) : void
        {
            addChild(loader.content);
        }
    }

```

This works fine when tested in AIR but not when I test on the device using the [TEST on DEVICE] build. My TestImage.png is in the bin folder where my Test.swf gets compiled into.
