Send Email Intent
AndroidEmailAndroid IntentAndroid Problem Overview
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("text/html");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, "[email protected]");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "I'm email body.");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Send Email"));
The above code opens a dialog showing following apps:- Bluetooth, Google Docs, Yahoo Mail, Gmail, Orkut, Skype etc.
Actually, I want to filter these list-options. I want to show only email related apps e.g. Gmail, Yahoo Mail. How to do it?
I've seen such example on 'Android Market' application.
- Open Android Market app
- Open any application where developer has specified his/her email address. (If you can't find such app just open my app:- market://details?id=com.becomputer06.vehicle.diary.free , OR search by 'Vehicle Diary')
- Scroll down to 'DEVELOPER'
- Click on 'Send Email'
The dialog shows only email Apps e.g. Gmail, Yahoo Mail etc. It does not show Bluetooth, Orkut etc. What code produces such dialog?

UPDATE
Official approach:
public void composeEmail(String[] addresses, String subject) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:")); // only email apps should handle this
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, addresses);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(intent);
}
}
OLD ANSWER
The accepted answer doesn't work on the 4.1.2. This should work on all platforms:
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.fromParts(
"mailto","[email protected]", null));
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject");
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Body");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send email..."));
Update: According to marcwjj, it seems that on 4.3, we need to pass string array instead of a string for email address to make it work. We might need to add one more line:
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, addresses); // String[] addresses
Solution 2 - Android
There are three main approaches:
String email = /* Your email address here */
String subject = /* Your subject here */
String body = /* Your body here */
String chooserTitle = /* Your chooser title here */
1. Custom Uri
:
Uri uri = Uri.parse("mailto:" + email)
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("subject", subject)
.appendQueryParameter("body", body)
.build();
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, uri);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, chooserTitle));
2. Using Intent
extras:
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.parse("mailto:" + email));
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, body);
//emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_HTML_TEXT, body); //If you are using HTML in your body text
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Chooser Title"));
3. Support Library ShareCompat
:
Activity activity = /* Your activity here */
ShareCompat.IntentBuilder.from(activity)
.setType("message/rfc822")
.addEmailTo(email)
.setSubject(subject)
.setText(body)
//.setHtmlText(body) //If you are using HTML in your body text
.setChooserTitle(chooserTitle)
.startChooser();
Solution 3 - Android
when you will change your intent.setType like below you will get
intent.setType("text/plain");
Use android.content.Intent.ACTION_SENDTO
to get only the list of e-mail clients, with no facebook or other apps. Just the email clients.
Ex:
new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
I wouldn't suggest you get directly to the email app. Let the user choose his favorite email app. Don't constrain him.
If you use ACTION_SENDTO, putExtra does not work to add subject and text to the intent. Use Uri to add the subject and body text.
EDIT:
We can use message/rfc822
instead of "text/plain"
as the MIME type. However, that is not indicating "only offer email clients" -- it indicates "offer anything that supports message/rfc822 data". That could readily include some application that are not email clients.
message/rfc822
supports MIME Types of .mhtml, .mht, .mime
Solution 4 - Android
This is quoted from Android official doc, I've tested it on Android 4.4, and works perfectly. See more examples at https://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-common.html#Email
public void composeEmail(String[] addresses, String subject) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:")); // only email apps should handle this
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, addresses);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(intent);
}
}
Solution 5 - Android
A late answer, although I figured out a solution which could help others:
Java version
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
emailIntent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:[email protected]"));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send feedback"));
Kotlin version
val emailIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO).apply {
data = Uri.parse("mailto:[email protected]")
}
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send feedback"))
This was my output (only Gmail + Inbox suggested):
I got this solution from the Android Developers site.
Solution 6 - Android
This works for me:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:"));
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL , new String[] { "[email protected]" });
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "My subject");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Email via..."));
i.e. use the ACTION_SENDTO
action rather than the ACTION_SEND
action. I've tried it on a couple of Android 4.4 devices and it limits the chooser pop-up to only display email applications (Email, Gmail, Yahoo Mail etc) and it correctly inserts the email address and subject into the email.
Solution 7 - Android
Try:
intent.setType("message/rfc822");
Solution 8 - Android
This is the proper way to send the e-mail intent according to the Android Developer Official Documentation
Add these lines of code to your app:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);//common intent
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:")); // only email apps should handle this
Optional: Add the body and subject, like this
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Your Subject Here");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "E-mail body" );
You already added this line in your question
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"[email protected]"});
This will be the recipient's address, meaning the user will send you (the developer) an e-mail.
Solution 9 - Android
Finally come up with best way to do
String to = "[email protected]";
String subject= "Hi I am subject";
String body="Hi I am test body";
String mailTo = "mailto:" + to +
"?&subject=" + Uri.encode(subject) +
"&body=" + Uri.encode(body);
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
emailIntent.setData(Uri.parse(mailTo));
startActivity(emailIntent);
Solution 10 - Android
If you want only the email clients you should use android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL
with an array. Here goes an example:
final Intent result = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
result.setType("plain/text");
result.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] { recipient });
result.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
result.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, body);
Solution 11 - Android
Works on all android Versions:
String[] to = {"[email protected]"};
Uri uri = Uri.parse("mailto:[email protected]")
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("subject", "subject")
.appendQueryParameter("body", "body")
.build();
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(ACTION_SENDTO, uri);
emailIntent.putExtra(EXTRA_EMAIL, TO);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
Updated for Android 10, now using Kotlin...
fun Context.sendEmail(
address: String?,
subject: String?,
body: String?,
) {
val recipients = arrayOf(address)
val uri = address.toUri()
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("subject", subject)
.appendQueryParameter("body", body)
.build()
val emailIntent = Intent(ACTION_SENDTO, uri).apply {
setData("mailto:$address".toUri());
putExtra(EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
putExtra(EXTRA_TEXT, body);
putExtra(EXTRA_EMAIL, recipients)
}
val pickerTitle = getString(R.string.some_title)
ContextCompat.startActivity(this, Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, pickerTitle, null)
}
...after updating to API 30, the code did not fill the subject and body of the email client (e.g Gmail). But I found an answer here:
fun Context.sendEmail(
address: String?,
subject: String?,
body: String?,
) {
val selectorIntent = Intent(ACTION_SENDTO)
.setData("mailto:$address".toUri())
val emailIntent = Intent(ACTION_SEND).apply {
putExtra(EXTRA_EMAIL, arrayOf(address))
putExtra(EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject)
putExtra(EXTRA_TEXT, body)
selector = selectorIntent
}
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, getString(R.string.send_email)))
}
Solution 12 - Android
The following code works for me fine.
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("message/rfc822");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"abc@gmailcom"});
Intent mailer = Intent.createChooser(intent, null);
startActivity(mailer);
Solution 13 - Android
Edit: Not working anymore with new versions of Gmail
This was the only way I found at the time to get it to work with any characters.
doreamon's answer is the correct way to go now, as it works with all characters in new versions of Gmail.
Old answer:
Here is mine. It seems to works on all Android versions, with subject and message body support, and full utf-8 characters support:
public static void email(Context context, String to, String subject, String body) {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder("mailto:" + Uri.encode(to));
if (subject != null) {
builder.append("?subject=" + Uri.encode(Uri.encode(subject)));
if (body != null) {
builder.append("&body=" + Uri.encode(Uri.encode(body)));
}
}
String uri = builder.toString();
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.parse(uri));
context.startActivity(intent);
}
Solution 14 - Android
From Android developers docs:
public void composeEmail(String[] addresses, String subject) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:")); // only email apps should handle this
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, addresses);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(intent);
}
}
Solution 15 - Android
None of these solutions were working for me. Here's a minimal solution that works on Lollipop. On my device, only Gmail and the native email apps appear in the resulting chooser list.
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO,
Uri.parse("mailto:" + Uri.encode(address)));
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, body);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send email via..."));
Solution 16 - Android
Most of these answers work only for a simple case when you are not sending attachment. In my case I need sometimes to send attachment (ACTION_SEND) or two attachments (ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE).
So I took best approaches from this thread and combined them. It's using support library's ShareCompat.IntentBuilder
but I show only apps which match the ACTION_SENDTO with "mailto:" uri. This way I get only list of email apps with attachment support:
fun Activity.sendEmail(recipients: List<String>, subject: String, file: Uri, text: String? = null, secondFile: Uri? = null) {
val originalIntent = createEmailShareIntent(recipients, subject, file, text, secondFile)
val emailFilterIntent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.parse("mailto:"))
val originalIntentResults = packageManager.queryIntentActivities(originalIntent, 0)
val emailFilterIntentResults = packageManager.queryIntentActivities(emailFilterIntent, 0)
val targetedIntents = originalIntentResults
.filter { originalResult -> emailFilterIntentResults.any { originalResult.activityInfo.packageName == it.activityInfo.packageName } }
.map {
createEmailShareIntent(recipients, subject, file, text, secondFile).apply { `package` = it.activityInfo.packageName }
}
.toMutableList()
val finalIntent = Intent.createChooser(targetedIntents.removeAt(0), R.string.choose_email_app.toText())
finalIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_INITIAL_INTENTS, targetedIntents.toTypedArray())
startActivity(finalIntent)
}
private fun Activity.createEmailShareIntent(recipients: List<String>, subject: String, file: Uri, text: String? = null, secondFile: Uri? = null): Intent {
val builder = ShareCompat.IntentBuilder.from(this)
.setType("message/rfc822")
.setEmailTo(recipients.toTypedArray())
.setStream(file)
.setSubject(subject)
if (secondFile != null) {
builder.addStream(secondFile)
}
if (text != null) {
builder.setText(text)
}
return builder.intent
}

This works for me perfectly fine:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:" + address));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "E-mail"));
Solution 20 - Android
If you want to ensure that your intent is handled only by an email app (and not other text messaging or social apps), then use the ACTION_SENDTO
action and include the "mailto:" data scheme. For example:
public void composeEmail(String[] addresses, String subject) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:")); // only email apps should handle this
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, addresses);
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(intent);
}
}
I found this in https://developer.android.com/guide/components/intents-common.html#Email
Solution 21 - Android
Using intent.setType("message/rfc822");
does work but it shows extra apps that not necessarily handling emails (e.g. GDrive). Using Intent.ACTION_SENDTO
with setType("text/plain")
is the best but you have to add setData(Uri.parse("mailto:"))
to get the best results (only email apps). The full code is as follows:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
intent.setType("text/plain");
intent.setData(Uri.parse("mailto:[email protected]"));
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Email from My app");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Place your email message here ...");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Send Email"));
Solution 22 - Android
If you want to target Gmail then you could do the following. Note that the intent is "ACTION_SENDTO" and not "ACTION_SEND" and the extra intent fields are not necessary for Gmail.
String uriText =
"mailto:[email protected]" +
"?subject=" + Uri.encode("your subject line here") +
"&body=" + Uri.encode("message body here");
Uri uri = Uri.parse(uriText);
Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
sendIntent.setData(uri);
if (sendIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Send message"));
}

"?subject=" + Uri.encode("Feedback for app") +
"&body=" + Uri.encode(deviceInfo);
Uri uri = Uri.parse(uriText);
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
emailIntent.setData(uri);
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send email using..."));
} catch (android.content.ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
Toast.makeText(ContactUsActivity.this, "No email clients installed.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

Solution 25 - Android
String sendEmailTo = "[email protected]";
String subject = "Subject";
String body = "Body";
Uri uri = Uri.parse("mailto:"+sendEmailTo+"?subject="+subject+"&body="+body);
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, uri);
This worked for me. This will only show the mailing application in the intent chooser.
Additionally:
One problem that i faced with this method is I was unable to add space in the suggestions and body text.
So, to put spaces in the suggestion or body text then replace the space with %20
Solution 26 - Android
Maybe you should try this: intent.setType("plain/text");
I found it here. I've used it in my app and it shows only E-Mail and Gmail options.
Solution 27 - Android
Compose an email in the phone email client:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("plain/text");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] { "[email protected]" });
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "mail body");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, ""));
Solution 28 - Android
Use this:
boolean success = EmailIntentBuilder.from(activity)
.to("[email protected]")
.cc("[email protected]")
.subject("Error report")
.body(buildErrorReport())
.start();
use build gradle :
compile 'de.cketti.mailto:email-intent-builder:1.0.0'
Solution 29 - Android
This is what I use, and it works for me:
//variables
String subject = "Whatever subject you want";
String body = "Whatever text you want to put in the body";
String intentType = "text/html";
String mailToParse = "mailto:";
//start Intent
Intent variableName = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
variableName.setType(intentType);
variableName.setData(Uri.parse(mailToParse));
variableName.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
variableName.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, body);
startActivity(variableName);
This will also let the user choose their preferred email app. The only thing this does not allow you to do is to set the recipient's email address.

SEND TO EMAIL CLIENTS ONLY - WITH MULTIPLE ATTACHMENTS
There are many solutions but all work partially.
mailto properly filters email apps but it has the inability of not sending streams/files.
message/rfc822 opens up hell of apps along with email clients
so, the solution for this is to use both.
- First resolve intent activities using mailto intent
- Then set the data to each activity resolved to send the required data
private void share()
{
Intent queryIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.parse("mailto:"));
Intent dataIntent = getDataIntent();
Intent targetIntent = getSelectiveIntentChooser(context, queryIntent, dataIntent);
startActivityForResult(targetIntent);
}
Build the required data intent which is filled with required data to share
private Intent getDataIntent()
{
Intent dataIntent = buildIntent(Intent.ACTION_SEND, null, "message/rfc822", null);
// Set subject
dataIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, title);
//Set receipient list.
dataIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, toRecipients);
dataIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_CC, ccRecipients);
dataIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_BCC, bccRecipients);
if (hasAttachments())
{
ArrayList<Uri> uris = getAttachmentUriList();
if (uris.size() > 1)
{
intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE);
dataIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris);
}
else
{
dataIntent.putParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uris.get(0));
}
}
return dataIntent;
}
protected ArrayList<Uri> getAttachmentUriList()
{
ArrayList<Uri> uris = new ArrayList();
for (AttachmentInfo eachAttachment : attachments)
{
uris.add(eachAttachment.uri);
}
return uris;
}
Utitlity class for filtering required intents based on query intent
// Placed in IntentUtil.java
public static Intent getSelectiveIntentChooser(Context context, Intent queryIntent, Intent dataIntent)
{
List<ResolveInfo> appList = context.getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(queryIntent, PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);
Intent finalIntent = null;
if (!appList.isEmpty())
{

targetedIntents.add(allowedIntent);
}
if (!targetedIntents.isEmpty())
