name.apk

Thank you.
Not even name.apk. You only need to put the package name of the app you want to open.

@Taifun

Remove the close application blick

I tried to remove the close application block but after this the current running app is not closing so how the other app launch

[Taifun]

It looks like you are trying to launch your own app, which does not make much sense…

To launch another app, you obviously have to use the package name of the other app…

@Taifun

[Taifun]

You provided a screenshot which does not make sense

@Pro_member

I’m using Facebook Messenger Package name

How to know Package Names of other apps?

The package name for Facebook is com.facebook.katana The package name for Twitter is com.twitter.android Let me know if you need any others

EDIT: for facebook messenger you seem to use the correct package name… is the messenger installed on your device? What happens if you use the activity starter solution?

@Taifun

Yes I’m using the correct package name of Messenger

@How to know Package Names of other apps?

The package name for Facebook is com.facebook.katana

This is the package name of Facebook app not Facebook Messenger App

@Taifun

is the messenger installed on your device?

Of course Yes it’s installed in my device

@Taifun

What happens if you use the activity starter solution?

No i didn’t use activity starter solution

I think the main problem is Your extension is made for old Android version because you didn’t updated your extension after 2020 ao that’s why it’s not working in Android 11,12,13 version please provide updated version of this extension for higher Android Version if possible Thank you

[Taifun]

@Taifun

What happens if you use the activity starter solution?
