Issue with APK-to-APK Launch on Meta Quest — Unexpected Return to Lobby

Here’s the situation:

  • APK(1) launches APK(2) using an intent — this usually works, but occasionally it returns to the Meta Quest lobby (immersive home)instead of opening APK(2).
  • APK(2) then launches APK(3) — this frequently results in returning to the lobby (immersive home), and APK(3) does not open.
  • All APKs are installed via "Unknown Sources" and are intended to run in VR mode.
  • Tested on Meta Quest 2/3/3s, system version 81.

Has anyone experienced similar behavior or found a reliable way to ensure smooth APK-to-APK transitions without falling back to the lobby (immersive home)?
