Using Time Triggers would be the key to solving this:

Artboard 1(Iniital state of the web page), has a time trigger to show the animation as an overlay (artboard 2). Then apply a second time trigger (or user tap if you need to control the dismissal for review/discussion) to then go Artboard 3 which is the loaded version of the web page.

I liked the second time trigger idea better than a tap trigger @Chris W. Griffith , so I tried to simulate that in this video using a lottie animation, hope this helps, @Tasmia Tabassum 🙂 https://www.dropbox.com/s/ux0yykob3yn7c1q/loading-animation.mov?dl=0

Hi @Tasmia Tabassum, I think I'd resolve it with time triggers (Check this tutorial if you haven't used time triggers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFQEv3XBQCk , here Alex loops the animation with time triggers but maybe creating 2 loops with artboards (cloning the animation again) to show the users loading animation twice in prototype video and then looping out by linking the last animaton's last artboard to the app's first screen.Or while recording your prototype/interaction, you can set a tap trigger to loop out of the loading animation to simulate the app's loading process.  I hope this makes sense, let me know if it sounds too complicated so I'll answer your questions ok 🙂
