Question

Is there a way to create an intent other than (THIS, myActivity.class)?
I’m asking because I’d like to create an intent so that when the user goes to the other activity and presses ‘back’ button, he goes back to a activity other than the one where I created the intent.

Such as:

A creates B, B creates C, user presses ‘back’ on activity C, goes back to A.

I’ve tried new Intent(myOtherActivity.class, myNewActivity.class) but it doesn’t seem to work.

There are two things is this question:

1. You can start an activity with different approaches, but it is always implemented using an Intent. So see the Intent system for more information
2. If you want to start a different activity different then previous when using the back button, then you should manage the activity stack.

I hope this clears somethings up! if not comment below.
