Intent to Open Google Authenticator - android

Is there a way to, via Intent, open Google Authenticator. If yes, is it possible to open it with the key already filled, to make it practical for the user?


I've a peace of code that is more generic, so, you just need to send the package name as a parameter to the method openApp(Context context, String packageName)
public static void openApp(Context context, String packageName) {
PackageManager manager = context.getPackageManager();
Intent i = manager.getLaunchIntentForPackage(packageName);
if (i == null) {
try {
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + packageName)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + packageName)));
}
return;
}
i.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER);
context.startActivity(i);
}
In this way, even if the device doesn't have the app that you are trying to launch, the user will be driven by your app to the Play Store and maybe download it.
So, just call openApp(context, "com.google.android.apps.authenticator2"); to open Google Authenticator app.
EDIT
You can call Google Authenticator with all the values already set like this:
String uri = "otpauth://totp/whatever:" + email + "?secret=" + yourKey + "&issuer=whatever"
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(uri));
startActivity(intent);

How to open Google play store app directly without chooser intent [duplicate]

I have open the Google Play store using the following code
Intent i = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
i.setData(Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=my packagename "));
startActivity(i);.
But it shows me a Complete Action View as to select the option (browser/play store). I need to open the application in Play Store directly.

You can do this using the market:// prefix.
Java
final String appPackageName = getPackageName(); // getPackageName() from Context or Activity object
try {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)));
}
Kotlin
try {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$packageName")))
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$packageName")))
}
We use a try/catch block here because an Exception will be thrown if the Play Store is not installed on the target device.
NOTE: Any app can register as capable of handling the market://details?id=<appId> URI. If you want to specifically target Google Play, the solution in Berťák's answer is a good alternative.

Many answers here suggest to use Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)) to open Google Play, but I think it is insufficient in fact:
Some third-party applications can use its own intent-filters with "market://" scheme defined, thus they can process supplied Uri instead of Google Play (I experienced this situation with e.g.SnapPea application). The question is "How to open the Google Play Store?", so I assume, that you do not want to open any other application. Please also note, that e.g. app rating is only relevant in GP Store app etc...
To open Google Play AND ONLY Google Play I use this method:
public static void openAppRating(Context context) {
// you can also use BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID
String appId = context.getPackageName();
Intent rateIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appId));
boolean marketFound = false;
// find all applications able to handle our rateIntent
final List<ResolveInfo> otherApps = context.getPackageManager()
.queryIntentActivities(rateIntent, 0);
for (ResolveInfo otherApp: otherApps) {
// look for Google Play application
if (otherApp.activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName
.equals("com.android.vending")) {
ActivityInfo otherAppActivity = otherApp.activityInfo;
ComponentName componentName = new ComponentName(
otherAppActivity.applicationInfo.packageName,
otherAppActivity.name
);
// make sure it does NOT open in the stack of your activity
rateIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
// task reparenting if needed
rateIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
// if the Google Play was already open in a search result
// this make sure it still go to the app page you requested
rateIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
// this make sure only the Google Play app is allowed to
// intercept the intent
rateIntent.setComponent(componentName);
context.startActivity(rateIntent);
marketFound = true;
break;
}
}
// if GP not present on device, open web browser
if (!marketFound) {
Intent webIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id="+appId));
context.startActivity(webIntent);
}
}
The point is that when more applications beside Google Play can open our intent, app-chooser dialog is skipped and GP app is started directly.
UPDATE:
Sometimes it seems that it opens GP app only, without opening the app's profile. As TrevorWiley suggested in his comment, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP could fix the problem. (I didn't test it myself yet...)
See this answer for understanding what Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED does.

Go on Android Developer official link as tutorial step by step see and got the code for your application package from play store if exists or play store apps not exists then open application from web browser.
Android Developer official link
https://developer.android.com/distribute/tools/promote/linking.html
Linking to a Application Page
From a web site: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=<package_name>
From an Android app: market://details?id=<package_name>
Linking to a Product List
From a web site: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=pub:<publisher_name>
From an Android app: market://search?q=pub:<publisher_name>
Linking to a Search Result
From a web site: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=<search_query>&c=apps
From an Android app: market://search?q=<seach_query>&c=apps

While Eric's answer is correct and Berťák's code also works. I think this combines both more elegantly.
try {
Intent appStoreIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName));
appStoreIntent.setPackage("com.android.vending");
startActivity(appStoreIntent);
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException exception) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)));
}
By using setPackage, you force the device to use the Play Store. If there is no Play Store installed, the Exception will be caught.

try this
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=com.example.android"));
startActivity(intent);

All of the above answers open Google Play in a new view of the same app, if you actually want to open Google Play (or any other app) independently:
Intent launchIntent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.android.vending");
// package name and activity
ComponentName comp = new ComponentName("com.android.vending",
"com.google.android.finsky.activities.LaunchUrlHandlerActivity");
launchIntent.setComponent(comp);
// sample to open facebook app
launchIntent.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=com.facebook.katana"));
startActivity(launchIntent);
The important part is that actually opens google play or any other app independently.
Most of what I have seen uses the approach of the other answers and it was not what I needed hopefully this helps somebody.
Regards.

You can check if the Google Play Store app is installed and, if this is the case, you can use the "market://" protocol.
final String my_package_name = "........." // <- HERE YOUR PACKAGE NAME!!
String url = "";
try {
//Check whether Google Play store is installed or not:
this.getPackageManager().getPackageInfo("com.android.vending", 0);
url = "market://details?id=" + my_package_name;
} catch ( final Exception e ) {
url = "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + my_package_name;
}
//Open the app page in Google Play store:
final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_WHEN_TASK_RESET);
startActivity(intent);

use market://
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + my_packagename));

As the official docs use https:// instead of market://, this combines Eric's and M3-n50's answer with code reuse (don't repeat yourself):
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
.setData(Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + getPackageName()));
try {
startActivity(new Intent(intent)
.setPackage("com.android.vending"));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException exception) {
startActivity(intent);
}
It tries to open with the GPlay app if it exists and falls back to default.

Some of the answers to this question are outdated.
What worked for me (in 2020) was to explicitly tell the intent to skip the chooser and directly open the play store app, according to this link:
"If you want to link to your products from an Android app, create an
Intent that opens a URL. As you configure this intent, pass
"com.android.vending" into Intent.setPackage() so that users see your
app's details in the Google Play Store app instead of a chooser."
This is the Kotlin code I used to direct users to viewing the app containing the package name com.google.android.apps.maps in Google Play:
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).apply {
data = Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.maps")
setPackage("com.android.vending")
}
startActivity(intent)
I hope that helps someone!

Kotlin:
Extension:
fun Activity.openAppInGooglePlay(){
val appId = BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID
try {
this.startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$appId")))
} catch (anfe: ActivityNotFoundException) {
this.startActivity(
Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$appId")
)
)
}}
Method:
fun openAppInGooglePlay(activity:Activity){
val appId = BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID
try {
activity.startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$appId")))
} catch (anfe: ActivityNotFoundException) {
activity.startActivity(
Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$appId")
)
)
}
}

You can do:
final Uri marketUri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + packageName);
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, marketUri));
get Reference here:
You can also try the approach described in the accepted answer of this question:
Cannot determine whether Google play store is installed or not on Android device

Very late in the party Official docs are here. And code described is
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(
"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.android"));
intent.setPackage("com.android.vending");
startActivity(intent);
As you configure this intent, pass "com.android.vending" into Intent.setPackage() so that users see your app's details in the Google Play Store app instead of a chooser.
for KOTLIN
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).apply {
data = Uri.parse(
"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.android")
setPackage("com.android.vending")
}
startActivity(intent)
If you have published an instant app using Google Play Instant, you can launch the app as follows:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri.Builder uriBuilder = Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details")
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("id", "com.example.android")
.appendQueryParameter("launch", "true");
// Optional parameters, such as referrer, are passed onto the launched
// instant app. You can retrieve these parameters using
// Activity.getIntent().getData().
uriBuilder.appendQueryParameter("referrer", "exampleCampaignId");
intent.setData(uriBuilder.build());
intent.setPackage("com.android.vending");
startActivity(intent);
For KOTLIN
val uriBuilder = Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details")
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("id", "com.example.android")
.appendQueryParameter("launch", "true")
// Optional parameters, such as referrer, are passed onto the launched
// instant app. You can retrieve these parameters using Activity.intent.data.
uriBuilder.appendQueryParameter("referrer", "exampleCampaignId")
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).apply {
data = uriBuilder.build()
setPackage("com.android.vending")
}
startActivity(intent)

Ready-to-use solution:
public class GoogleServicesUtils {
public static void openAppInGooglePlay(Context context) {
final String appPackageName = context.getPackageName();
try {
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException e) { // if there is no Google Play on device
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)));
}
}
}
Based on Eric's answer.

Kotlin
fun openAppInPlayStore(appPackageName: String) {
try {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$appPackageName")))
} catch (exception: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException) {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$appPackageName")))
}
}

This link will open the app automatically in market:// if you are on Android and in browser if you are on PC.
https://play.app.goo.gl/?link=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.app.id&ddl=1&pcampaignid=web_ddl_1

If you want to open Google Play store from your app then use this command directy: market://details?gotohome=com.yourAppName, it will open your app's Google Play store pages.
Web: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=
App: market://details?id=
Show all apps by a specific publisher
Web: http://play.google.com/store/search?q=pub:
App: market://search?q=pub:
Search for apps that using the Query on its title or description
Web: http://play.google.com/store/search?q=
App: market://search?q=
Reference: https://tricklio.com/market-details-gotohome-1/

Here is the final code from the answers above that first attempts to open the app using the Google play store app and specifically play store, if it fails, it will start the action view using the web version:
Credits to #Eric, #Jonathan Caballero
public void goToPlayStore() {
String playStoreMarketUrl = "market://details?id=";
String playStoreWebUrl = "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=";
String packageName = getActivity().getPackageName();
try {
Intent intent = getActivity()
.getPackageManager()
.getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.android.vending");
if (intent != null) {
ComponentName androidComponent = new ComponentName("com.android.vending",
"com.google.android.finsky.activities.LaunchUrlHandlerActivity");
intent.setComponent(androidComponent);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(playStoreMarketUrl + packageName));
} else {
intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(playStoreMarketUrl + packageName));
}
startActivity(intent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(playStoreWebUrl + packageName));
startActivity(intent);
}
}

I have combined both Berťák and Stefano Munarini answer to creating a hybrid solution which handles both Rate this App and Show More App scenario.
/**
* This method checks if GooglePlay is installed or not on the device and accordingly handle
* Intents to view for rate App or Publisher's Profile
*
* #param showPublisherProfile pass true if you want to open Publisher Page else pass false to open APp page
* #param publisherID pass Dev ID if you have passed PublisherProfile true
*/
public void openPlayStore(boolean showPublisherProfile, String publisherID) {
//Error Handling
if (publisherID == null || !publisherID.isEmpty()) {
publisherID = "";
//Log and continue
Log.w("openPlayStore Method", "publisherID is invalid");
}
Intent openPlayStoreIntent;
boolean isGooglePlayInstalled = false;
if (showPublisherProfile) {
//Open Publishers Profile on PlayStore
openPlayStoreIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("market://search?q=pub:" + publisherID));
} else {
//Open this App on PlayStore
openPlayStoreIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + getPackageName()));
}
// find all applications who can handle openPlayStoreIntent
final List<ResolveInfo> otherApps = getPackageManager()
.queryIntentActivities(openPlayStoreIntent, 0);
for (ResolveInfo otherApp : otherApps) {
// look for Google Play application
if (otherApp.activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName.equals("com.android.vending")) {
ActivityInfo otherAppActivity = otherApp.activityInfo;
ComponentName componentName = new ComponentName(
otherAppActivity.applicationInfo.packageName,
otherAppActivity.name
);
// make sure it does NOT open in the stack of your activity
openPlayStoreIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
// task reparenting if needed
openPlayStoreIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
// if the Google Play was already open in a search result
// this make sure it still go to the app page you requested
openPlayStoreIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
// this make sure only the Google Play app is allowed to
// intercept the intent
openPlayStoreIntent.setComponent(componentName);
startActivity(openPlayStoreIntent);
isGooglePlayInstalled = true;
break;
}
}
// if Google Play is not Installed on the device, open web browser
if (!isGooglePlayInstalled) {
Intent webIntent;
if (showPublisherProfile) {
//Open Publishers Profile on web browser
webIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/search?q=pub:" + getPackageName()));
} else {
//Open this App on web browser
webIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + getPackageName()));
}
startActivity(webIntent);
}
}
Usage
To Open Publishers Profile
#OnClick(R.id.ll_more_apps)
public void showMoreApps() {
openPlayStore(true, "Hitesh Sahu");
}
To Open App Page on PlayStore
#OnClick(R.id.ll_rate_this_app)
public void openAppInPlayStore() {
openPlayStore(false, "");
}

public void launchPlayStore(Context context, String packageName) {
Intent intent = null;
try {
intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + packageName));
context.startActivity(intent);
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + packageName)));
}
}

My kotlin entension function for this purpose
fun Context.canPerformIntent(intent: Intent): Boolean {
val mgr = this.packageManager
val list = mgr.queryIntentActivities(intent, PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY)
return list.size > 0
}
And in your activity
val uri = if (canPerformIntent(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://")))) {
Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)
} else {
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)
}
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri))

KOTLIN :
create extension in context.
fun Context.openPlayStoreApp(pkgName:String?){
if(!pkgName.isNullOrEmpty()) {
try {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$pkgName")))
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
startActivity(
Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$pkgName")
)
)
}
}
}
Hope it should work.

Peoples, dont forget that you could actually get something more from it. I mean UTM tracking for example. https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/android/v4/campaigns
public static final String MODULE_ICON_PACK_FREE = "com.example.iconpack_free";
public static final String APP_STORE_URI =
"market://details?id=%s&referrer=utm_source=%s&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=plugin";
public static final String APP_STORE_GENERIC_URI =
"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=%s&referrer=utm_source=%s&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=plugin";
try {
startActivity(new Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse(String.format(Locale.US,
APP_STORE_URI,
MODULE_ICON_PACK_FREE,
getPackageName()))).addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse(String.format(Locale.US,
APP_STORE_GENERIC_URI,
MODULE_ICON_PACK_FREE,
getPackageName()))).addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP));
}

A kotlin verison with fallback and current syntax
fun openAppInPlayStore() {
val uri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + context.packageName)
val goToMarketIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri)
var flags = Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
flags = if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 21) {
flags or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_DOCUMENT
} else {
flags or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK
}
goToMarketIntent.addFlags(flags)
try {
startActivity(context, goToMarketIntent, null)
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + context.packageName))
startActivity(context, intent, null)
}
}

Tested. This should work fine.
val context = LocalContext.current
val onOpenPlayStore: () -> Unit = {
try {
LOG.d(tag, "onOpenPlayStore ${context.packageName}")
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=${context.packageName}"))
startActivity(context, intent, null)
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
var intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=${context.packageName}"))
startActivity(context, intent, null)
}
}

For Rate Application: Redirect to Playstore.
In Flutter, you can do it through a Platform channel Like this
Flutter Part:-
static const platform = const MethodChannel('rateApp'); // initialize
onTap: platform.invokeMethod('urls', {'android_id': 'com.xyz'}),
Now Android Native Part(Java):
private static final String RATEAPP = "rateApp"; // initialize variable
// Now in ConfigureFlutterEngine funtion:
new MethodChannel(flutterEngine.getDartExecutor().getBinaryMessenger(), RATEAPP)
.setMethodCallHandler(
(call, result) -> {
if (call.method.equals("urls") && call.hasArgument("android_id")) {
String id = call.argument("android_id").toString();
try {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("$uri" + id)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + id)));
}
result.success("Done");
} else {
result.notImplemented();
}
}
);

How to install apps from GooglePlay from Activity ? Android

I made a simple code that will download a app from Google Play.I tried
the code and tested it on real device but I got an error called "No application can perform this action."I declared android.permission.INTERNET in the manifest, but still doesn't work.
I would be glad if you can help me out.
Intent i = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
i.setData(Uri.parse("market://developer?*/urlofgoogleplay*/"));
chooser = Intent.createChooser(i,"Launch Market");
startActivity(chooser);

public static void linkGooglePlay(Context context) {
Uri uri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + context.getPackageName());
Intent goToMarket = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
try {
context.startActivity(goToMarket);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + context.getPackageName())));
}
}

This is the right syntax:
i.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + app_package));
Here's the documentation

How to open the Google Play Store directly from my Android application?

I have open the Google Play store using the following code
Intent i = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
i.setData(Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=my packagename "));
startActivity(i);.
But it shows me a Complete Action View as to select the option (browser/play store). I need to open the application in Play Store directly.

You can do this using the market:// prefix.
Java
final String appPackageName = getPackageName(); // getPackageName() from Context or Activity object
try {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)));
}
Kotlin
try {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$packageName")))
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$packageName")))
}
We use a try/catch block here because an Exception will be thrown if the Play Store is not installed on the target device.
NOTE: Any app can register as capable of handling the market://details?id=<appId> URI. If you want to specifically target Google Play, the solution in Berťák's answer is a good alternative.

Many answers here suggest to use Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)) to open Google Play, but I think it is insufficient in fact:
Some third-party applications can use its own intent-filters with "market://" scheme defined, thus they can process supplied Uri instead of Google Play (I experienced this situation with e.g.SnapPea application). The question is "How to open the Google Play Store?", so I assume, that you do not want to open any other application. Please also note, that e.g. app rating is only relevant in GP Store app etc...
To open Google Play AND ONLY Google Play I use this method:
public static void openAppRating(Context context) {
// you can also use BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID
String appId = context.getPackageName();
Intent rateIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appId));
boolean marketFound = false;
// find all applications able to handle our rateIntent
final List<ResolveInfo> otherApps = context.getPackageManager()
.queryIntentActivities(rateIntent, 0);
for (ResolveInfo otherApp: otherApps) {
// look for Google Play application
if (otherApp.activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName
.equals("com.android.vending")) {
ActivityInfo otherAppActivity = otherApp.activityInfo;
ComponentName componentName = new ComponentName(
otherAppActivity.applicationInfo.packageName,
otherAppActivity.name
);
// make sure it does NOT open in the stack of your activity
rateIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
// task reparenting if needed
rateIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
// if the Google Play was already open in a search result
// this make sure it still go to the app page you requested
rateIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
// this make sure only the Google Play app is allowed to
// intercept the intent
rateIntent.setComponent(componentName);
context.startActivity(rateIntent);
marketFound = true;
break;
}
}
// if GP not present on device, open web browser
if (!marketFound) {
Intent webIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id="+appId));
context.startActivity(webIntent);
}
}
The point is that when more applications beside Google Play can open our intent, app-chooser dialog is skipped and GP app is started directly.
UPDATE:
Sometimes it seems that it opens GP app only, without opening the app's profile. As TrevorWiley suggested in his comment, Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP could fix the problem. (I didn't test it myself yet...)
See this answer for understanding what Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED does.

Go on Android Developer official link as tutorial step by step see and got the code for your application package from play store if exists or play store apps not exists then open application from web browser.
Android Developer official link
https://developer.android.com/distribute/tools/promote/linking.html
Linking to a Application Page

While Eric's answer is correct and Berťák's code also works. I think this combines both more elegantly.
try {
Intent appStoreIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName));
appStoreIntent.setPackage("com.android.vending");
startActivity(appStoreIntent);
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException exception) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)));
}
By using setPackage, you force the device to use the Play Store. If there is no Play Store installed, the Exception will be caught.

try this
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=com.example.android"));
startActivity(intent);

All of the above answers open Google Play in a new view of the same app, if you actually want to open Google Play (or any other app) independently:
Intent launchIntent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.android.vending");
// package name and activity
ComponentName comp = new ComponentName("com.android.vending",
"com.google.android.finsky.activities.LaunchUrlHandlerActivity");
launchIntent.setComponent(comp);
// sample to open facebook app
launchIntent.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=com.facebook.katana"));
startActivity(launchIntent);
The important part is that actually opens google play or any other app independently.
Most of what I have seen uses the approach of the other answers and it was not what I needed hopefully this helps somebody.
Regards.

You can check if the Google Play Store app is installed and, if this is the case, you can use the "market://" protocol.
final String my_package_name = "........." // <- HERE YOUR PACKAGE NAME!!
String url = "";
try {
//Check whether Google Play store is installed or not:
this.getPackageManager().getPackageInfo("com.android.vending", 0);
url = "market://details?id=" + my_package_name;
} catch ( final Exception e ) {
url = "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + my_package_name;
}
//Open the app page in Google Play store:
final Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_WHEN_TASK_RESET);
startActivity(intent);

use market://
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + my_packagename));

As the official docs use https:// instead of market://, this combines Eric's and M3-n50's answer with code reuse (don't repeat yourself):
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
.setData(Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + getPackageName()));
try {
startActivity(new Intent(intent)
.setPackage("com.android.vending"));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException exception) {
startActivity(intent);
}
It tries to open with the GPlay app if it exists and falls back to default.

Some of the answers to this question are outdated.
What worked for me (in 2020) was to explicitly tell the intent to skip the chooser and directly open the play store app, according to this link:
"If you want to link to your products from an Android app, create an
Intent that opens a URL. As you configure this intent, pass
"com.android.vending" into Intent.setPackage() so that users see your
app's details in the Google Play Store app instead of a chooser."
This is the Kotlin code I used to direct users to viewing the app containing the package name com.google.android.apps.maps in Google Play:
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).apply {
data = Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.maps")
setPackage("com.android.vending")
}
startActivity(intent)
I hope that helps someone!

Kotlin:
Extension:
fun Activity.openAppInGooglePlay(){
val appId = BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID
try {
this.startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$appId")))
} catch (anfe: ActivityNotFoundException) {
this.startActivity(
Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$appId")
)
)
}}
Method:
fun openAppInGooglePlay(activity:Activity){
val appId = BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID
try {
activity.startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$appId")))
} catch (anfe: ActivityNotFoundException) {
activity.startActivity(
Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$appId")
)
)
}
}

You can do:
final Uri marketUri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + packageName);
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, marketUri));
get Reference here:
You can also try the approach described in the accepted answer of this question:
Cannot determine whether Google play store is installed or not on Android device

Very late in the party Official docs are here. And code described is
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(
"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.android"));
intent.setPackage("com.android.vending");
startActivity(intent);
As you configure this intent, pass "com.android.vending" into Intent.setPackage() so that users see your app's details in the Google Play Store app instead of a chooser.
for KOTLIN
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).apply {
data = Uri.parse(
"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.android")
setPackage("com.android.vending")
}
startActivity(intent)
If you have published an instant app using Google Play Instant, you can launch the app as follows:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri.Builder uriBuilder = Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details")
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("id", "com.example.android")
.appendQueryParameter("launch", "true");
// Optional parameters, such as referrer, are passed onto the launched
// instant app. You can retrieve these parameters using
// Activity.getIntent().getData().
uriBuilder.appendQueryParameter("referrer", "exampleCampaignId");
intent.setData(uriBuilder.build());
intent.setPackage("com.android.vending");
startActivity(intent);
For KOTLIN
val uriBuilder = Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details")
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("id", "com.example.android")
.appendQueryParameter("launch", "true")
// Optional parameters, such as referrer, are passed onto the launched
// instant app. You can retrieve these parameters using Activity.intent.data.
uriBuilder.appendQueryParameter("referrer", "exampleCampaignId")
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).apply {
data = uriBuilder.build()
setPackage("com.android.vending")
}
startActivity(intent)

Ready-to-use solution:
public class GoogleServicesUtils {
public static void openAppInGooglePlay(Context context) {
final String appPackageName = context.getPackageName();
try {
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException e) { // if there is no Google Play on device
context.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)));
}
}
}
Based on Eric's answer.

Kotlin
fun openAppInPlayStore(appPackageName: String) {
try {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$appPackageName")))
} catch (exception: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException) {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$appPackageName")))
}
}

This link will open the app automatically in market:// if you are on Android and in browser if you are on PC.
https://play.app.goo.gl/?link=https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.app.id&ddl=1&pcampaignid=web_ddl_1

If you want to open Google Play store from your app then use this command directy: market://details?gotohome=com.yourAppName, it will open your app's Google Play store pages.
Web: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=
App: market://details?id=
Show all apps by a specific publisher
Web: http://play.google.com/store/search?q=pub:
App: market://search?q=pub:
Search for apps that using the Query on its title or description
Web: http://play.google.com/store/search?q=
App: market://search?q=
Reference: https://tricklio.com/market-details-gotohome-1/

Here is the final code from the answers above that first attempts to open the app using the Google play store app and specifically play store, if it fails, it will start the action view using the web version:
Credits to #Eric, #Jonathan Caballero
public void goToPlayStore() {
String playStoreMarketUrl = "market://details?id=";
String playStoreWebUrl = "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=";
String packageName = getActivity().getPackageName();
try {
Intent intent = getActivity()
.getPackageManager()
.getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.android.vending");
if (intent != null) {
ComponentName androidComponent = new ComponentName("com.android.vending",
"com.google.android.finsky.activities.LaunchUrlHandlerActivity");
intent.setComponent(androidComponent);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(playStoreMarketUrl + packageName));
} else {
intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(playStoreMarketUrl + packageName));
}
startActivity(intent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(playStoreWebUrl + packageName));
startActivity(intent);
}
}

I have combined both Berťák and Stefano Munarini answer to creating a hybrid solution which handles both Rate this App and Show More App scenario.
/**
* This method checks if GooglePlay is installed or not on the device and accordingly handle
* Intents to view for rate App or Publisher's Profile
*
* #param showPublisherProfile pass true if you want to open Publisher Page else pass false to open APp page
* #param publisherID pass Dev ID if you have passed PublisherProfile true
*/
public void openPlayStore(boolean showPublisherProfile, String publisherID) {
//Error Handling
if (publisherID == null || !publisherID.isEmpty()) {
publisherID = "";
//Log and continue
Log.w("openPlayStore Method", "publisherID is invalid");
}
Intent openPlayStoreIntent;
boolean isGooglePlayInstalled = false;
if (showPublisherProfile) {
//Open Publishers Profile on PlayStore
openPlayStoreIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("market://search?q=pub:" + publisherID));
} else {
//Open this App on PlayStore
openPlayStoreIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + getPackageName()));
}
// find all applications who can handle openPlayStoreIntent
final List<ResolveInfo> otherApps = getPackageManager()
.queryIntentActivities(openPlayStoreIntent, 0);
for (ResolveInfo otherApp : otherApps) {
// look for Google Play application
if (otherApp.activityInfo.applicationInfo.packageName.equals("com.android.vending")) {
ActivityInfo otherAppActivity = otherApp.activityInfo;
ComponentName componentName = new ComponentName(
otherAppActivity.applicationInfo.packageName,
otherAppActivity.name
);
// make sure it does NOT open in the stack of your activity
openPlayStoreIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
// task reparenting if needed
openPlayStoreIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
// if the Google Play was already open in a search result
// this make sure it still go to the app page you requested
openPlayStoreIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP);
// this make sure only the Google Play app is allowed to
// intercept the intent
openPlayStoreIntent.setComponent(componentName);
startActivity(openPlayStoreIntent);
isGooglePlayInstalled = true;
break;
}
}
// if Google Play is not Installed on the device, open web browser
if (!isGooglePlayInstalled) {
Intent webIntent;
if (showPublisherProfile) {
//Open Publishers Profile on web browser
webIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/search?q=pub:" + getPackageName()));
} else {
//Open this App on web browser
webIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + getPackageName()));
}
startActivity(webIntent);
}
}
Usage
To Open Publishers Profile
#OnClick(R.id.ll_more_apps)
public void showMoreApps() {
openPlayStore(true, "Hitesh Sahu");
}
To Open App Page on PlayStore
#OnClick(R.id.ll_rate_this_app)
public void openAppInPlayStore() {
openPlayStore(false, "");
}

public void launchPlayStore(Context context, String packageName) {
Intent intent = null;
try {
intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + packageName));
context.startActivity(intent);
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + packageName)));
}
}

My kotlin entension function for this purpose
fun Context.canPerformIntent(intent: Intent): Boolean {
val mgr = this.packageManager
val list = mgr.queryIntentActivities(intent, PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY)
return list.size > 0
}
And in your activity
val uri = if (canPerformIntent(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://")))) {
Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)
} else {
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)
}
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri))

KOTLIN :
create extension in context.
fun Context.openPlayStoreApp(pkgName:String?){
if(!pkgName.isNullOrEmpty()) {
try {
startActivity(Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=$pkgName")))
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
startActivity(
Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=$pkgName")
)
)
}
}
}
Hope it should work.

Peoples, dont forget that you could actually get something more from it. I mean UTM tracking for example. https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/android/v4/campaigns
public static final String MODULE_ICON_PACK_FREE = "com.example.iconpack_free";
public static final String APP_STORE_URI =
"market://details?id=%s&referrer=utm_source=%s&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=plugin";
public static final String APP_STORE_GENERIC_URI =
"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=%s&referrer=utm_source=%s&utm_medium=app&utm_campaign=plugin";
try {
startActivity(new Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse(String.format(Locale.US,
APP_STORE_URI,
MODULE_ICON_PACK_FREE,
getPackageName()))).addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(
Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse(String.format(Locale.US,
APP_STORE_GENERIC_URI,
MODULE_ICON_PACK_FREE,
getPackageName()))).addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP));
}

A kotlin verison with fallback and current syntax
fun openAppInPlayStore() {
val uri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + context.packageName)
val goToMarketIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri)
var flags = Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NO_HISTORY or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_MULTIPLE_TASK or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK
flags = if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 21) {
flags or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_DOCUMENT
} else {
flags or Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK
}
goToMarketIntent.addFlags(flags)
try {
startActivity(context, goToMarketIntent, null)
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + context.packageName))
startActivity(context, intent, null)
}
}

Tested. This should work fine.
val context = LocalContext.current
val onOpenPlayStore: () -> Unit = {
try {
LOG.d(tag, "onOpenPlayStore ${context.packageName}")
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=${context.packageName}"))
startActivity(context, intent, null)
} catch (e: ActivityNotFoundException) {
var intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=${context.packageName}"))
startActivity(context, intent, null)
}
}

For Rate Application: Redirect to Playstore.
In Flutter, you can do it through a Platform channel Like this
Flutter Part:-
static const platform = const MethodChannel('rateApp'); // initialize
onTap: platform.invokeMethod('urls', {'android_id': 'com.xyz'}),
Now Android Native Part(Java):
private static final String RATEAPP = "rateApp"; // initialize variable
// Now in ConfigureFlutterEngine funtion:
new MethodChannel(flutterEngine.getDartExecutor().getBinaryMessenger(), RATEAPP)
.setMethodCallHandler(
(call, result) -> {
if (call.method.equals("urls") && call.hasArgument("android_id")) {
String id = call.argument("android_id").toString();
try {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("$uri" + id)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + id)));
}
result.success("Done");
} else {
result.notImplemented();
}
}
);

Rate Google Play application directly in app [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Use application to rate it on market [duplicate]
(4 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I need to make rate option in my android app.
I found this link
but I'm not sure that want I search. I want to just provide ability for users to rate my app on Google Play.

The rating is done through market app so that ratings can be trusted. If apps were allowed to handle the rating themselves, then the developer could manipulate the app's rating any time. So there is no way you can handle the rating yourself. You can only prompt the user to your app page on Google Play and ask them to rate your app for more support.
Use the built-in intent to launch market
private void launchMarket() {
Uri uri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + getPackageName());
Intent myAppLinkToMarket = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
try {
startActivity(myAppLinkToMarket);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
Toast.makeText(this, " unable to find market app", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}

Simple do this...
final String appPackageName = "your.package.name";
try {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + appPackageName)));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=" + appPackageName)));
}

You can use 3rd party tool. Here are some commonly used solutions:
appirater: https://github.com/drewjw81/appirater-android/
apptentive: http://www.apptentive.com/
polljoy: https://polljoy.com
AppRater: https://github.com/delight-im/AppRater

public void launchMarket()
{
Uri uri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + this.getPackageName());
Intent myAppLinkToMarket = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
try
{
mContext.startActivity(myAppLinkToMarket);
}
catch (ActivityNotFoundException e)
{
Toast.makeText(this, " Sorry, Not able to open!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}

Users can't rate your app directly from within your app. They must go to Google Play and rate it. Like the link shows, you must redirect the user to view your app on Google Play:
mContext.startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + APP_PNAME)));

For the code below, I have used try and catch method. The try and catch method will work as follows. On button click, the try method will try to search for the Google play store app on your android phone and launches it if is already installed and navigates to your application on the play store. However, in case you don't have the play store app on your android phone, catch method is executed and launches browser installed on your application and navigates to your application on the play store. getPackageName() is an inbuilt function that gets your project package name. You can add it manually as a string.
Also see for amazon store
String package="com.example.android";
The full code.
button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
try {
Uri uri = Uri.parse("market://details?id="+getPackageName()+"");
Intent goMarket = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
startActivity(goMarket);
}catch (ActivityNotFoundException e){
Uri uri = Uri.parse("https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id="+getPackageName()+"");
Intent goMarket = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
startActivity(goMarket);
}
}
});

I was searching for a feature similar to iOS, where the user doesn't need to be redirected to play store and again asked to write his reviews. Initially, I thought this was impossible but thankfully my understanding was outdated. Found this app which does that searching for code though.

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("market://details?id=com.test(This is the package name)"));
startActivity(intent);

I always use a method like this one
private void launchMarket() {
Uri uri = Uri.parse("market://details?id=" + getPackageName());
Intent goToMarket = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
try {
startActivity(goToMarket);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
Toast.makeText(this, "couldn't launch the market", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}

Paste this simple code to go play store rating page from your Application
Intent intent1 = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("market://details?id="
+ MainActivity.this.getPackageName()));
startActivity(intent1);

Open a facebook page from android app?

How can I start an intent to open a Facebook application on a phone and navigate to the prefered page in Facebook?
I tried:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setClassName("com.facebook.katana", "com.facebook.katana.ProfileTabHostActivity");
intent.putExtra("extra_user_id", "123456789l");
this.startActivity(intent);
Well, whatever I write to "1234567891", it is always navigating to my page. Always to me and not else.
How could I do this?

Here is the best and simple way to do it.
Just follow the code
public final void Facebook() {
final String urlFb = "fb://page/"+yourpageid;
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse(urlFb));
// If Facebook application is installed, use that else launch a browser
final PackageManager packageManager = getPackageManager();
List<ResolveInfo> list =
packageManager.queryIntentActivities(intent,
PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
if (list.size() == 0) {
final String urlBrowser = "https://www.facebook.com/pages/"+pageid;
intent.setData(Uri.parse(urlBrowser));
}
startActivity(intent);
}

I had the exactly same problem, sent the user id but for some reason, my profile always opened instead of the friend's profile.
The problem is that if you pass the String of the Long object that represents the Facebook UID, or even a long primitive type, the intent won't be able to read it later. You need to pass a real Long.
So the complete code is:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setClassName("com.facebook.katana", "com.facebook.katana.ProfileTabHostActivity");
Long uid = new Long("123456789");
intent.putExtra("extra_user_id", uid);
startActivity(intent);
Ok enjoy and hope this helps :-)
Maxim

try this code :
String facebookUrl = "https://www.facebook.com/<id_here>";
try {
int versionCode = getPackageManager().getPackageInfo("com.facebook.katana", 0).versionCode;
if (versionCode >= 3002850) {
Uri uri = Uri.parse("fb://facewebmodal/f?href=" + facebookUrl);
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri));
} else {
Uri uri = Uri.parse("fb://page/<id_here>");
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri));
}
} catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) {
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(facebookUrl)));
}

This solution won't work any more. The new version of the facebook app doesn't support anymore those kind of intents. See here the bug report
The new solution is to use the iPhone scheme mechanism (Yes, facebook decided to support the iPhone mechanism in Android instead of the implicit intent mechanism of Android).
So in order to open the facebook app with a user profile all you need to do is:
String facebookScheme = "fb://profile/" + facebookId;
Intent facebookIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(facebookScheme));
startActivity(facebookIntent);
If you are looking for other actions you can use the following page for all available actions (/you have to test it though, since I didn't find an official publication of facebook about this)
