Ok, the article also states several remediations to the `singleTask` problem, one of which is using `singleInstance` instead. The problems noted with `singleTask` (which I think is the intended behaviour of that mode and thus isn't treated as a security vulnerability) is that the the task can be shared with several different activities. If you're aiming to guarantee only a single instance of your activity however, `singleTask` is not the solution as it conditionally allows multiple instances. `singleInstance` is the only launch mode that guarentees a single instance of your activity, but it also enforces that there are no other tasks (the activity itself must be the only task) which might be problematic if you rely on Intents. These are quite advanced topics, so I suggest reading the [Android](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#lmode) for your different launch mode options. You can confgure cordova to use them using `<preference name="AndroidLaunchMode" value="<mode>" />` in your `config.xml`. Each of the modes have their pros & cons. I'm closing this issue because there is no clear bug with Cordova and we expose options to change the launch mode. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
