what intents or apis does Google's Duo app for

Question

Can we start a new video call via Google Duo via intent? Can we launch into any specific screen within the app?

We currently have support for launching Hangouts from our app, and we would like to add Duo support as well.

Answer 1

Use this :-

Intent intent = getPackageManager().getLaunchIntentForPackage("com.google.android.apps.tachyon");
startActivity(intent);

Answer 2

Found this in the truecaller source code. Can't get to work, but hope it helps. I'm using Kotlin.

val I = Intent("com.google.android.apps.tachyon.action.CALL")
i.'package' = "com.google.android.apps.tachyon"
i.data = Uri.parse("tel: $phone") // phone is the phone number your to a function
i.putExtra(com.google.android.apps.tachyon.extra.IS_AUDIO_ONLY, false)
startActivity(i)
