Question

I’d like to destroy an Activity when the user clicks on a button (not the back button, a different button). I’ve decided to just call super.onBackPressed. Is that okay? What’s a better way to close the current Activity without closing the whole app?

Answer 1

for closing an Activity you can use finish() , but you have to aware of back stack, if you finish your last activity in the stack so there will be no activity in your stack and you must restart your app .
