Hello, how are you? I am working on an app under android-studio. I want to make an option in my application that says "start when the device is turned on", that the application itself verifies if it starts when you turn on the computer and auto-tilde the option, otherwise no, that when it works, how can you give account, the application starts when android starts. Is this possible? I'm looking and I do not know how to do it thanks
What you need is to use a Broadcast Receiver that listens to this action
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED, with that it can be detected when the equipment finished the restart.
I'll give you this sample code
You declare the following on your AndroidManifest:
Permission
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />
Broadcast Receiver
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
Then you create your BroadCast Receiver
package tu.paquete;
import android.content.BroadcastReceiver;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
public class TuBroadcastReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
//cuando detecta la acción del reinicio completado, inicias tu activity
if (intent.getAction().equals(Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED)) {
Intent i = new Intent(context, TuActividad.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
context.startActivity(i);
}
}
}
I leave an example link if you want: Take action after of the restart
