Android Notification open currently running app instead of creating a new process?

Im receiving a push notification with a custom Uri scheme: myapp://main

In my onReceive i create a notification:

public void createNotification(Context context, String title, String message, String summary, Uri uri) {
    Notification.Builder notification = new Notification.Builder(context)
            .setContentTitle(title)
            .setContentText(message)
            .setSmallIcon(R.drawable.ic_launcher)
            .setDefaults(Notification.DEFAULT_LIGHTS)
            .setAutoCancel(true);

    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN && summary != null)
        notification.setSubText(summary);


    Intent intent = new Intent("android.intent.action.VIEW", uri);
    PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getActivity(context, 0, intent, 0);
    notification.setContentIntent(pendingIntent);

    Notification noti;
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN)
        noti = notification.build();
    else
        noti = notification.getNotification();

    NotificationManager notificationManager = (NotificationManager) context.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
    notificationManager.notify(0, noti);
}

When I then tap on that notification it opens a new Activity which is my MainActivity. But it seems like it creates a whole new process aswell instead of just opening my currently running app.

Are there some flags Im missing?

There are LaunchModes for Activity

android:launchMode=["multiple" | "singleTop" |"singleTask" | "singleInstance"]

Read more about LaunchMode here

This can be placed in your Activity tag in manifest.

To get the intent data try onNewIntent()

You can set Intent as follow，the Intent action and category match with you specify in AndroidManifest.xml

 Intent intent = new Intent()  
            .setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)  
            .addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_DEFAULT)  
            .addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_BROWSABLE)
            .setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP |
                    Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_SINGLE_TOP) 
            .setPackage(getPackageName())
            .setData(uri);
