How to change android app launchMode?
Hi, I added two android plugins to my app on Unity: the google play services and the google admob plugin. They created the android manifest file and after that, when I click the app icon it restarts the app completely.
I know I need to change the launchMode. The problem is that I don't know which activity need to be changed. I tried adding launchMode="singleInstance" to all UnityPlayer activities on the manifest, but it still restarts.
Here's the manifest: http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:installLocation="preferExternal" package="com.example.admobtest" android:versionName="1.0" android:versionCode="1">
