Can you search Google Play using Intent?

Question

Here's the situation:
I want to open another app via implicit intent, but the user doesn't have adequate app. Can I open for him "Google Play Search Activity" with results including apps that contain components able to serve such intent (have appropriate intent filter). In other words can you perform search using "Intent data"?

Answer 1

To perform search use search keyword in URI:

Intent goToMarket = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).setData(Uri.parse("market://search?q=<Your Search Word>"));
startActivity(goToMarket);
