I cant seem to launch my application. It gives me an error like this: "Error running second Activity: The activity must be exported or contain an intent-filter".
Is there anything wrong with my manifest?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="sg.edu.rp.g913.mymakeuppouch">
<application
android:allowBackup="true"

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:name=".secondActivity">
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
Put android:exported="true"
in the <activity>
tag
<activity android:name=".secondActivity"
android:exported="true">
You should set the Run>edit configuration to the desired launcher activity and give the intent filter at the manifest to the correct activity
