            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

        <activity

            android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize"

            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="ucloud.intent.action.uvod.example.uvideoview" />

        </activity>
        <activity
                android:name="com.ucloud.uvod.example.permission.PermissionsActivity"

                android:launchMode="singleTask"
                android:theme="@style/BlueTheme"/>
    </application>

</manifest>

If configured in Activity

            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>

Is

the entrance to the program?

Answer 1

Yes.

///MAIN表示是主入口
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
///LAUNCHER表示桌面显示的icon对应的Activity
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />

MAIN and LAUNCHER can be set to multiple activities at the same time.
But MAIN only works on the activity declared at the top of the manifest; LAUNCHER works on all set activities, which means you will see multiple icons on the desktop.
