Android - Opening the email application?

Question

I want to open the email application on my android app: The following code crashes Am I doing anything wrong? please provide code

Intent i = new Intent (Intent.ACTION_SEND,Uri.fromParts("mailto", "[email protected]", null)); this.startActivity(i); 

Answer 1

/* Create the Intent */ final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);  /* Fill it with Data */ emailIntent.setType("plain/text"); emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"[email protected]"}); emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject"); emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Text");  /* Send it off to the Activity-Chooser */ context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail...")); 

Try this, it is a bit more clear. Nonetheless intent for emails only works if you are using the application in a real phone, so if you are using the emulator, try it on a real phone.

Try This :

    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);     Uri data = Uri.parse("mailto:"             + "[email protected]"             + "?subject=" + "Feedback" + "&body=" + "");     intent.setData(data);     startActivity(intent);
