Appium fails to launch on Android emulator with multiple activities

I'm using

• Appium v1.22.2
• IntelliJ community
• Gradle with dependencies
  implementation 'io.appium:java-client:7.6.0' testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.13.1' implementation 'org.assertj:assertj-core:3.22.0'

Can you please help me to start an application via Appium on Android Emulator with multiple activities?

I couldn't get ahold of the concept of App_Wait_Activity and was trying to find the best suitable activity. While looking at Appium logs, it says that appium found the best match which is presentation.onboarding.OnboardActivity. When I choose this activity the application launches and quits, and there are errors. (See the error log below)

I also checked AndroidManifest.xml on Android Studio and there are multiple activities coming from top to bottom as:

1. android:name=".presentation.splash.StartActivity"
2. android:name=".presentation.onboarding.OnboardActivity"
3. android:name=".presentation.splash.SplashActivity"
4. android:name=".MainActivity"
5. android:name=".presentation.custom_view.widgets.WidgetsActivity"

The error log with chosen App_activity as .presentation.onboarding.OnboardActivity.
