End Application with exclude from Recents

suggest change

First define an ExitActivity in the AndroidManifest.xml

<activity
        android:name="com.your_example_app.activities.ExitActivity"
        android:autoRemoveFromRecents="true"
        android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoDisplay" />

Afterwards the ExitActivity-class

/**
 * Activity to exit Application without staying in the stack of last opened applications
 */
public class ExitActivity extends Activity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

        if (Utils.hasLollipop()) {
            finishAndRemoveTask();
        } else if (Utils.hasJellyBean()) {
            finishAffinity();
        } else {
            finish();
        }
    }

   /**
    * Exit Application and Exclude from Recents
    *
    * @param context Context to use
    */
    public static void exitApplication(ApplicationContext context) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(context, ExitActivity.class);
        intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_ANIMATION | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_EXCLUDE_FROM_RECENTS);
        context.startActivity(intent);
    }
}
