How do I programmatically launch a specific application?
android
Solution
You use the package name / class directly, for example to create a new intent to call the twidroid program you'd use the followinglink text:
Intent intent = new Intent("com.twidroid.SendTweet");
You'd probably want to put a try/catch around for a ActivityNotFoundException for when the application is not installed.
Problem
I want to launch a specif application. I know how to do Intents but I want to avoid the selection menu if there are multiple apps that can handle the intent, I want to go directly to a particular app. Hope this makes sense.
