Intent (activity) skipping

Question

I had an app that i want it exit a specific activity for example: A -> B -> C but everytime i press the back button from activity C it always bring me back to B and from B to A before exiting. Is there anyway that I can exit directly from C no need to go through B and A again?

If you know A and B are complete, call finish() within each of them after they've started the next activity.

If you don't want an Activity to show up in the history, you can define it in the manifest file with the noHistory attribute. I've done this for a few of my activities.

<activity android:name="com.sample.activity.MyActivity" android:noHistory="true" />
