Deep linking and multiple app instances

Question

I have implemented deep linking in my app. I added this intent filter in my manifest file, and the deep linking is working.

Answer 1

You need to do following things for your Activity in your Manifest.

android:launchMode="singleTask"

This tells the system to always launch the existing instance of the Activity if it is already created.

And you can handle the Intent then by overriding the method

onNewIntent
