Try using PackageManager
and getLaunchIntentForPackage()
with the package name for DropBox, i.e com.dropbox.android
. You will get a PackageManager.NameNotFoundException if Dropbox isn't installed.
If what you want is to share a file by lauching dropbox , you can use ACTION_SEND :
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "title");
you can also send a specific file :
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType(fileType);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse(file.getPath()));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "title"));
See this article to understand the convention behind ACTION_SEND.
