Disclosed are various examples of providing a secured application launcher for initiating execution of access-restricted applications. A computer disables a default launch activity alias for a user application, wherein the default launch activity alias comprises a first reference to an application programming interface (API) to initiate execution of the user application. The computer then queries the user application for a presence of a container activity alias provided by the user application, wherein the container activity alias comprises a second reference to the API to initiate execution of the user application. The computer then displays an application icon representing the user application based at least in part on the presence of the container activity alias. The computer then calls the container activity alias for the user application based at least in part on a manipulation of the application icon.
