You cannot send keystrokes to other applications.

If you can find out an Intent that launches it, you use startActivity()
like you would any other activity. Finding the proper Intent can be a
bit tricky, though there are methods on the PackageManager class that
may help you identify what is launchable.

Bear in mind, though, that unless those Intents are publicly documented,
they are likely to break in future releases of Android (or of whatever
3rd party app you attempt to launch).
