@vcardillo there is an issue in Android about this behavior:

"If, after the app is launched, the user presses the HOME key to return to the home screen and then tries to return to the app by selecting it from the list of applications (or by putting a shortcut on the home screen and then selecting the shortcut), the OS launches the root activity of the app AGAIN, bringing the existing task to the foreground and placing ANOTHER instance of the root activity on top of the existing activity stack."

But there are some apps that does the desired behavior so there must be way to implement it, i will search a solution.

Yea, this one might be a wontfix for now. In fact I might agree with you where it launches the root.

Let's wait on this one.
