Android email chooser

Question

I am writing an app that needs to send emails at the end of each transaction. I am doing the following:

Intent mail = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
mail.s         


        

Answer 1

It's a common misconception to use text/plain or text/html. This will trigger any application that can handle plain or HTML text files without any context, including Google Drive, Dropbox, Evernote and Skype.

Instead use a ACTION_SENDTO, providing the mailto: Uri:

intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.parse("mailto:"));

You can then proceed using the chooser as suggested through the other answers.
