Description
Feature description
On the rare occasion that the API app crashes, it seems the only way to start it again is to reboot the device. If users had a launcher for the home screen or an activity to start with am start, then we could start the API without device reboot

Research direction
Start by locating the Android app entry point that can be invoked with am start and reviewing how the add-on exposes its API. Done means users can launch the API again from a home-screen shortcut or with am start after it has crashed, without rebooting the device.
