Back to activity after launching google map intent

Question

I have MainActivity with a fragment on it, when user clicking on fragment, user will navigate to another fragment, on the last fragment there is a button to launch google map navigation, this is the code:

@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
    String url = "https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=-17.174498,12.634206";
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
    startActivity(intent);
    getActivity().overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_up_in, R.anim.slide_up_out);
}

The problem is, after map is launched I want user to back to my application when pressing back, instead to launcher.

Is there any way to do this.

This is my full code:

MainActivity

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        setTheme(R.style.AppTheme);
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        if (savedInstanceState == null) {
            getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.fragment_container, new SplashFragment())
                    .commit();
        }
    }
}

SplashFragment

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // Inflate the layout for this fragment
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_splash, container, false);
    view.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {

            Transition transition = new Fade(Visibility.MODE_IN);
            transition.setDuration(400);

            Fragment fragment = MapsFragment.newInstance();

            // set transition animation
            fragment.setEnterTransition(transition);
            fragment.setAllowEnterTransitionOverlap(true);
            fragment.setAllowReturnTransitionOverlap(true);

            // add second fragment by replacing first
            getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.fragment_container, fragment)
                    .addToBackStack(null)
                    .commit();
        }
    });

    return view;
}

after start activity write code for getActivity().onBackpressed(); — Himeshgiri gosvami, Aug 31 '17 at 14:00
You can Use google maps within your app https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-api/start . In case you cant find the soln. — Sahdeep Singh, Aug 31 '17 at 14:07
@SahdeepSingh actually I already do that, I want Google map turn by turn navigation feature so I launch google map. — nyongrand, Aug 31 '17 at 14:12
@nyongrand This might work https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24531391/is-it-possible-to-create-turn-by-turn-gps-navigation-app-on-android-using-google but for your question i cant say anything — Sahdeep Singh, Aug 31 '17 at 14:17
@SahdeepSingh thanks for the link, I think it's possible, I don't pay much attention to it, because it's really simple invitation apps to show the location, it will be overkill to implement those code :) — nyongrand, Aug 31 '17 at 14:27

You have to add flags to the intent as below

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_EXCLUDE_FROM_RECENTS);
startActivity(intent);
getActivity().overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_up_in, R.anim.slide_up_out);

Please try and let me know.

Doesn't work, when pressing back on google map, android just back to launcher. – nyongrand Aug 31 '17 at 14:14
try without overriding the transaction getActivity().overridePendingTransition(R.anim.slide_up_in, R.anim.slide_up_out); – Programming Pirate Aug 31 '17 at 14:17
this worked fine for me, even without flags it works fine.. might be we are looking at the wrong place... are you getting any warning or exception. Did you add any flags to your mainactivity like exclude from recents in intent or in manifest? – Programming Pirate Aug 31 '17 at 14:19
it works on my first try, but when I try it again, without changing any code, it does not work, even after clearing all recent apps, it still does not work, – nyongrand Aug 31 '17 at 14:21
Please check are there any flags set for the main activity, what are the codes that are there to navigate from one fragment to other? did you call finish some where? Is your app visible in the recents after opening google maps? Is your onDestroy called? what log are you getting? I am asking you these many questions as the code snippet you have provided is not sufficient to answer your question. Sorry for asking so many questions.. – Programming Pirate Aug 31 '17 at 14:31
Ok, I updated my question, myl app is visible on the recet, onDestroy is not called, – nyongrand Aug 31 '17 at 14:42
