I need to restart my app to a certain activity...is it possible?
When I restart it I don't want to start the first activity of application. How can I do this?
EDIT : I need to free memory of the app when I restart the app.

In the onCreate method of the activity that is first launched you need to check if you want to go to another activity or not and then
where restarted is some condition that check if your app was running before , you can use shared preferences to store some bool value
if(restarted){
Intent startActivity = new Intent();
startActivity.setClass(this,OTHER_ACTIVITY.class);
startActivity(startActivity);
finish();
}else{
//just normal flow
}
You have to start the Activity
you wish straight from the initial Activity
's onCreate()
. As this is only applicable when the app restarts, you have to save a SharedPreference
to flag the fact your app has already started once.
There won't be any flickering as Activity
is designed in a way it is not displayed if another Activity
is started during its onCreate()
.
