how to activate another PBI app from one app ?

Hi All

I have one PBI already put up at App A at web services. 

Can i make use of App A call App B ? 

So instead of see 2 App appear at web service , only see 1.

So i can combine many app into 1.

 

If possible , i can create a button to activate the App B.
