Question

I created a button, and I want when a user clicks this button. It should run an installed app from my device (such as Maps). This is my code (button is aupeo)

aupeo.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {

                final PackageManager pm = getPackageManager();
                List<ApplicationInfo> packages = pm
                .getInstalledApplications(PackageManager.GET_META_DATA);

                for (ApplicationInfo packageInfo : packages) {
                         //Don't know how to get app's info to call it.
                }
            }

        });

I don’t know how to get app’s info, call and run app.

 aupeo.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {

                  Intent i = new Intent();
                i.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
                i.setClassName("com.xxxx.your_package_name",
                        "com.xxxx.your_class_name");

                startActivity(i);
            }

        });
