    You need to put a flag in the activity you want to be forgotten.

    Intent intent = new Intent(this, Main2Activity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK|Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
startActivity(intent);

    Why does it happen ?

    This is happening because whenever you open another activity from intent, it creates it over it.

    How to solve the problem?

    1. You can add a flag like this
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK|Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
startActivity(intent);

    OR

    1. You can finish it.
    Intent intent = new Intent(this, SecondActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();

    If you want to close the app onBackPressed, you can override the method. Add this to your activity.

    @Override
public void onBackPressed(){
    finish();
    System.exit(0);
}

    Doing this, the app will be closed on back pressed!

    Answer by @Sambhav Khandelwal should solve your problem. In your splash screen you need to do add flags with intent like:

    Intent intent = new Intent(SplashScreenActivity.this, LoginActivity.class); //assuming your splash screen name as SplashScreenActivity and login as LoginActivity
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK|Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK);
startActivity(intent);

    Or you can do without flags like below:

    Intent intent = new Intent(SplashScreenActivity.this, LoginActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
finish();
