How to open google play store with button click

Question

hello I am working on my own launcher that has a button that says "Google Play" what I want it to do is when the user clicks this button it takes them to the google play store home page NOT to a specific app page

heres my code:

  /** Called when the user clicks the play button */
    public void play(View view) {
        Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
        intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.android.vending","what goes here??"));
        intent.putExtra("grace", "Hi");
        startActivity(intent);


    }

Thanks way in advance

Regards

Chris

Some other people have got the same problem: How to click on Android Button then go to google play apps

public void play(View view) {
  Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("market://details?id=com.theopen.android"));
  startActivity(intent);
}

Answer 4

Did you try entering an empty query instead of a package name? I must say I haven't tried it myself either

startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("market://search?q=")));
