Android moving from one app to another

Question

I have two separate apps. the packages are as follows:

com.example.incrediblemachine.rnt

com.example.incrediblemachine.palpal

i would like to do the following:

when clicked on a button on the rnt app, i want the palpal app to open. is there any way to do this?

Answer 1

Use getLaunchIntentForPackage method in your Button onClick() . Before that install com.example.incrediblemachine.palpal app in device /emulator.

Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
button.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent launchIntent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.example.incrediblemachine.palpal");
startActivity(launchIntent);

}
});
