What is Tasks & Backstack?
A task is a collection of activities that the user interacts with to accomplish a goal, and the back stack keeps track of the order in which those activities were opened. When the user presses Back, activities are popped off the stack in reverse order. Understanding task and back stack behavior is important for building predictable navigation flows.
