I want to open a url in a browser from an Android app. Thats pretty straightforward: How can I open a URL in Android's web browser from my application?

But how can I open the url in a specific browser, if it exists.

    open url in chrome;
else if(user has opera)
    open url in opera;
else
    open url in default browser;

    Generally speaking Tanis right, you shouldn’t do such things for Android.

    However, if you really need to. You can use Intent.setPackage. This will send indent to appropriate application package.
