start google hangouts in android

Question

I want to start a new hangout conversation with given people, but I can't find any code for it. Is there any easy solution to do this? I tryed to make skype call, and it worked easyly with an intent.

Here is the skype code:

                Intent sky = new Intent("android.intent.action.VIEW");
                sky.setData(Uri.parse("skype:" + nickname));
                startActivity(sky);

I want something similar to this. (Or with skype how can I make a conference call? )

Answer 1

There is currently no way to create a Google+ hangout on an android device using an intent or any other API.

This would be a pretty cool feature, though. If you request it, they might add it.
