Yes obvious you just need to start the new activity by using startActivityForResult()

Here is the full description for the implementation of this method.

Brief Description: You just need to start the target activity by using startActivityForResult() method same as we do by using startActivity(). Now it will redirect you in target activity, residing inside it, do all the processes and at the end just call setResult() method. So it will again get back to you in Source activity. Inside this you need to override the onActivityResult() method. Here you get the result from target activity.

This is a decently short explanation of how the Activity result process works:

Look for the "Starting Activities and Getting Results" heading under the Activity documentation in the stock Android documentation:
