Open Zoom app and MS Teams from my own app

[Mohamed_Genedy]

Hey MIT app inventor world,
I’m developing an app to link more than one app and open important learning platforms using a shortcut buttons.
I could for example open Skype from my app, Camera and Whatsapp but I can’t open Zoom and MS Teams with the same way.
I used this activity starter to open Skype for example:
Action: android.intent.action.MAIN ActivityPackage: com.skype.raider
ActivityClass: com.skype.raider.Main
This one works very well with skype but it doesn’t work with Zoom and MS Teams when I change the package name
Any advice?!
Thanks a lot

Try the Package Manager Extension:

Thanks a lot @Ken.
It works very well now.

Hey @Ken,
Do you know how to notify the user if the packet name doesn’t exist?

[Ken]

You could “getpackages” and in the “result” check for the packagename

I have tried it before but it didn’t work.
I think I may need to know the return value of the launch app method to check it.

Show your blocks, it should work.
