Launch another android app from dashticz

Post by dipas0 »

I would like to start another Android app from Dashticz.

The app is installed on a tablet and Dashticz I access from the same tablet. I can create a button, but what is the action/command to start another app?

How can I do that?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi HansieNL,

Thanks for your tip. I immediately checked to see if this works for me. And have adopted what is stated about e.g. YouTube as follows:

Code: Select all

buttons.youtube = {
  key: 'Youtube',
  width: 12,
  title: 'Youtube',
  newwindow: 1,
  url: 'intent:#Intent;launchFlags=0x10000000;component=com.google.android.youtube/.app.honeycomb.Shell%24HomeActivity;end',
}
However, I get asked if the app should be opened with 'Adobe' (once or always) or if I want to use another app to open with and then the tablet gives the suggestion 'Backup'. This also happens when I try another app. Any idea where it could be going wrong for me?
