Pending intent force-create new activity

Not a duplicate of: Pending intent always make new activity since no solution is there.

Here is my PendingIntent:

Intent intent = new Intent(context, MainActivity.class);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);       
return PendingIntent.getActivity(context, REQUEST_CODE_PUSH_MESSAGE_TYPE, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_CANCEL_CURRENT);

If I close the app (e.g. back button) and use this PendingIntent in the notification it will create a new activity.

If however I pause the app (e.g. home button) and click on the same notification the activity (and the containing fragment) will be resumed.

How can I create a new activity (and its fragment) everytime I use this PendingIntent?

Remove Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP from the Intent. The use of Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP tells Android to reuse the existing instance of the Activity.

use the Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK

From the documentation

If set, this activity will become the start of a new task on this history stack.

you can add in or, with the other flags you are using

intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
