Android Intent-filter for GEO-URI

Question

I try to write an Activity as an alternative to google maps. It works perfect when calling it by an google-maps url:

<activity android:name="DataActivity" android:label="@string/app_name">
  <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
    <data android:scheme="http" android:host="maps.google.com" />
  </intent-filter>
</activity>

But for some reason it does not shown up when starting an Intent with a "geo"-URI.

My Activity:

<activity android:name="DataActivity" android:label="@string/app_name">
  <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
    <data android:scheme="geo" android:host="*" />
  </intent-filter>
</activity>

The Caller (This starts Google Maps without the option to start my App):

final String uri = "geo:" + lat + "," + lng;
startActivity(new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri)));

Answer 1

try with

<intent-filter android:priority="0">
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW"/>
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE"/>
    <data android:scheme="geo"/>
</intent-filter>
