I launch skype with this code.

Intent skype_intent = new Intent("android.intent.action.VIEW"); skype_intent.setClassName("com.skype.raider", "com.skype.raider.Main"); skype_intent.setData(Uri.parse("skype: skype_name")); startActivity(skype_intent);

It's okay But if there is no skype on the phone, the application crashes. How can I call Skype another way, so that it does not crash the application or make a check for skype on the phone. If you have run the code, if not output "You do not have skype"?

    and what prevents to handle an exception (try catch) and display "you do not have skype" when it is more beautiful. How exactly does crash happen? - alexoander

I think in explanation this code does not need:

 private boolean isAppInstalled(String packageName) { PackageManager pm = getPackageManager(); boolean installed = false; try { pm.getPackageInfo(packageName, PackageManager.GET_ACTIVITIES); installed = true; } catch (PackageManager.NameNotFoundException e) { installed = false; } return installed; }
