Run Windows 10 IoT app at startup?

Question

I have a .NET universal application which I deployed to Raspberry Pi 2. It runs when I select "Debug" in Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition. But whenever Raspberry shuts down, I need to start the app again.

How can I make my app run at startup time?

There are the following ways:

1.) Set the app as default app via the Webbrowser

2.) Via a PowerShell connection (MS IoT Github). When connected, type

    iotstartup add headed HelloRaspi

where HelloRaspi is the name of the app and headed means that it has a user interface.
