How can i open a screen or app in a new activity?

You can’t open another screen except Screen1, however see below…

Use the activity starter correctly… follow the documentation, chapter “Using the activity starter with two App Inventor Apps”

To pass a startup text value to the App Inventor app you are starting with the Activity Starter, ise EXTRAS to set the KEY property to the string APP_INVENTOR_START and set the VALUE Property to the text you want to pass. The other app can then retrieve this value with Get Start Plain Text

.

Theoretically you also could use a startup value, check that value during Screen1 Initialize and open another screen, however in Kodular this does not work since a few years, because they never found it necessary to fix this bug [🎂 bug] Get Plain Start Text = *nothing* bug
