How to launch application, if my device is Android tv? in android version of 9 and lower this code workid, but higher versions the application do not launching. Is any solutions?

`class BootReceiver : BroadcastReceiver() {
    override fun onReceive(context: Context, intent: Intent) {
        if (intent.action == Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED) {
            Log.w("bootbroadcastpoc", "starting service...");

            if (Intent.ACTION_BOOT_COMPLETED.equals(intent.getAction())) {
                Toast.makeText(context, "Boot completed", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                val intent = Intent(context, KioskActivity::class.java)
                intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK)
                context.startActivity(intent)


            }
        }
    }
}`

I also tried to start the service and from the service launch my application, but that also did not help.

As Android Developers page, Android 10 (API level 29) and higher place restrictions on when apps can start activities when the app runs in the background. There are several solutions, but I think the easiest way is to request SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission.
