Re: [android-developers] How to specify an IntentFilter that only activates when the Intent comes from within my own app?

Please do not do this. It will not have the desired effect: it will
show up in the chooser for all apps. And, if the user tries tapping on
it from another app, that app crashes.

The only solution for the OP's original requirement is to roll a
custom chooser from scratch.
