I'd like to do the following:

Steps Required:
1. Install App from Google Play
2. Bluetooth device paired with phone
3. Whenever bluetooth device is in range, app associated with this 
bluetooth device automatically launches.

In other words, the user never manually launches the app.

As I understand it, when an app is first installed from Google Play, it is 
in a "stopped" state -- the same state it is in when the user force stops 
an app. In this state, broadcast receivers are not be invoked. (a related

<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8531926/how-to-start-a-service-when-apk-is-installed-for-the-first-time>
)

Is it possible to auto launch an app this way?
