Is it possible to send a signal from an intent and recover it in another intent

Issue

I have 2 activities.. one is launched via deep links. MainActivity doesn't start DeeplinkActivity. How do I know from MainActivity when DeeplinkActivity finishes.

I have tried setting an intent filter programmatically. then added it to MainActivity then in DeeplinkActivity sendBroadcast.

I was unsuccessful since the broadcast recover method in MainActivity wasn't responding to broadcast sent from Deeplink via sendBroadcast(getIntent())

Solution

You can use interface, inside onDestroy() of DeepLink activity call the interface method and implement the method in MainActivity. Check this answer. https://stackoverflow.com/a/19027202/7248394
