Android Studio mailto Intent doesn't show subject and mail body

Question

I\'m trying to send an e-mail from my Android App. With the click on a button, gmail should open and show a new email with my previously defined recipient, subject and email

Answer 1

In order to get it to work on Samsung and Pixel devices, we had to add the parameters on both the url and the extras

val email = "xxxx@xxxx.com"
val subject = "xxxx"
val body = "xxxx"

val selectorIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO)
val urlString = "mailto:" + Uri.encode(email) + "?subject=" + Uri.encode(subject) + "&body=" + Uri.encode(body)
selectorIntent.data = Uri.parse(urlString)

val emailIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND)
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, arrayOf(email))
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject)
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, body)
emailIntent.selector = selectorIntent

startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send email"))
