How to use the intention to start Add Contact?

Question

I am trying to start the add contacts function from my application. I know how to trigger contact activity, but so far it’s not known how to launch “Add Contact”. I'm starting to learn Android, please be specific. Thanks.

Answer 1

Intent intent = new Intent( ContactsContract.Intents.SHOW_OR_CREATE_CONTACT, Uri.parse("tel:" + phoneNumber)); intent.putExtra(ContactsContract.Intents.EXTRA_FORCE_CREATE, true); startActivity(intent); 

Answer 2

Try this code:

  Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT_OR_EDIT); i.setType(ContactsContract.Contacts.CONTENT_ITEM_TYPE); startActivity(i);
