I'm building a Voice Messaging App, and would like an entry to be made in
the Address book for each of my friends that have a mobile phone, as soon
as my App is installed. How do I do this? What API calls do I invoke?
Any advice will be much appreciated.
Specifically: as an Android USER I would like my App icon to appear in my
native address book to initiate a new (my App's function) message. When I
click on the button in the Address Book, the recording message panel from
my App will open with the User's name in the delivery field.
If I understand what you are trying to do (which is a big IF) then this is
not possible. When you say initiate a new message, what does that mean?
Text message? Email Message? Both?
The only thing that you can do is use intent-filters in your application
manifest to tell Android that your app handles the type of data you are
looking for... i.e. sms, email, etc... Then, wherever Android queries for
a list of apps that can handle that particular data, yours will appear in
the list. There is no way to limit it to just your own app though.
Thanks,
