Closing chrome custom tab

In my use case, I have a page that deep links back to my app. When I open this page in Chrome custom tab, I am able to get back to my app by clicking the deep link but the issue is when I click on the device back button, the chrome tab is still visible.

Is there any way I can close the chrome custom tab when the user is back to my app/activity.

Solution

  • Setting the below flag while opening chrome custom tab seems to resolve the issue for me http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY
