Android App Launch On Background

Post a Comment
We're developing an Android app for a POS system. Our app forwards the user to an app of a payment provider (Adyen) to handle the payment: Intent intent = new Intent('com.adyen.pos

Solution 1:

The common methods to ask another app to perform a task for you without displaying any UI would be:

  • Starting a Service

  • Sending a message to a BroadcastReceiver

If the component you are using does not require UI it would make sense for it to support either or both methods, but whether or not it actually does is a question for the vendor.

In general there is no method to start another activity, forcing it to display no UI and return right away. Whether that happens is up to the other activity.
