My app won't show up in my app drawrer

Question

I made an app that (just recently) stopped showing up in my app drawrer. It shows up as an installed app in Titanium Backup, but when I select it, it does not give me a "run app" option. The only way I am able to run it is by running it in Android Studio. I am pretty sure i have messed something up in my manifest that is making it act weird. Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong with my manifest? I have been comparing it to many different manifests and I tried removing and changing several lines in it but no luck. I am by far no expert in development therefore if the problem I am having is due to a very small error that I may not understand, be easy on me.

Here is my manifest. This is a text messaging app.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

Answer 1

You need to use two different intent-filter , one for the android.intent.action.MAIN action and one for the android.intent.action.SEND and android.intent.action.SENDTO actions.

Change your AndroidManifest.xml from this:

<activity
    android:name=".MainActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" >
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
            <data android:scheme="sms" />
            <data android:scheme="smsto" />
        <data android:scheme="mms" />
        <data android:scheme="mmsto" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>

to this:

<activity
    android:name=".MainActivity"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustPan" >
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
    </intent-filter>
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"/>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO"/>

        <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>

        <data android:scheme="sms"/>
        <data android:scheme="smsto"/>
        <data android:scheme="mms"/>
        <data android:scheme="mmsto"/>
    </intent-filter>
</activity>
