I need to know, in the Application context, what launched my app (specifically, was it a natural launch -click on icon-, was it launched by a third partie app or through deep link, or was it from a Firebase push). Is there a way to know that ?

Not really, getIntent() is not accessible in the Application class. – Laetan Oct 27 '16 at 14:34

1Ah, well, the Application class doesn't handle the starting of any particular Activity. You can't get any Intent filters from it – OneCricketeer Oct 27 '16 at 14:54

No.

Then IMHO you have put too much in the Application context. You are going to need to find some way of pushing the scenario-dependent logic into appropriate scenario-dependent entry points.

Well, I am creating an SDK and I wanted to initialize it in the Application class (as I seen other SDK do), but I think i'll do it in the launcher activity if I can't. – Laetan Oct 27 '16 at 15:07
