Autoshow MainActivity after install

Question

I have a question, is it possible to show MainActivity to user after they install my .apk on their devices? Because I have read that we can't autolaunch our apk after install, but I just need to show my Activity, so is it possible?

Thanks Google, it's not possible – Dmitry Zaytsev Jul 28 '13 at 18:36 — Dmitry Zaytsev, Jul 28 '13 at 18:36

You can't auto run your Android application right after the installation.

Maximum that you can do is to listen to android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED intent, and it will work only if the user manually launch your application at least once.
