With the help of intent filter, you can increase your user experience. For eg when you click on Link or File, a dialog pop-up for opening the link/file. If you are building Apps like browser, you will like to show your app in that dialog while clicking on link. It is possible to add this feature in sketchware apps.

Step 2: Run the project and install apk.

Step 5: Click on Save and Build the apk.
