Open other apps

[Ralf Denhof]

Hi,

I'm new to Android/Flutter development and facing a serious issue while trying to open another app out of my Flutter application.

I tried to use android_intent to open the other app in the following way (based on android_intent example):

final AndroidIntent intent = AndroidIntent(
   action: 'action_view',
   flags: <int>[Flag.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK],
   package: 'com.mypackage.myapp'
);
intent.launch();

This leads to App Chooser being opened and I notice following log entry:

I/IntentSender(16338): Cannot resolve explicit intent - ignoring package 

com.mypackage.myapp is exactly the package name of the app I want to open as defined in Android manifest.xml.

Do I miss s.th.?

Best,

Ralf

Hi Fabricio,

Thanks for quick response. I'm using exactly the package you've mentioned. 

In the meantime I found helpful documentation mentioning android.intent.category.DEFAULT as a prerequisite. After adding 

<intent-filter>
  <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
  <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>

to my MainActivity everything works like a charm.

Best,

Ralf
