How to bind a progressbar to a task?

when I press on a Button in my App, I am directed to a new Activity, but this takes a little time and the user might think the App is idle. So I want to have a progressbar or this little circle spinning while the new Activity is loading. The question now, how can I set such a progressbar to the Intent task, so that it fills accordingly to the loading progress?

Thank you!

You can give some predefined delay and use any of the UI elements like I used alert dialog for my application, you can use any other element and set the timer appropriately. 

final AlertDialog.Builder dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(getActivity()).setMessage("Please wait you are being redirected");

                final AlertDialog alert = dialog.create();

                alert.show();
                alert.setCancelable(false);

                new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run()
                    {
                        Intent i = new Intent(ctx, MyAccount.class);
                        startActivity(i);
                        if (alert.isShowing()) {
                            alert.dismiss();
                        }
                    }
                }, 3000);
