How to make a phone call from your Android app

If you want to make a phone call from android app, write below code when you want to call on any number: Intent dialIntent = new Intent(); dialIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_DIAL); dialIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:9494299494")); If you want to call on dynamic number: String number = "9494942994"; Intent dialIntent = new Intent(); dialIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_DIAL); dialIntent.setData(Uri.parse("tel:"+number));  Intent.ACTION_DIAL brings up the dialer, but doesn't actually make the phone call. For make directly phone call, replace action as below: dialIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_CALL); You'll also have to declare android.permission.PHONE_CALL permission in your AndroidManifest.xml and above Android 6 (Marshmallow), give run-time permission. For run-time permission in android, I suggest  to use TedPermission library. TedPermission is a simple permission check helper.

Open app in Play Store

If you comment that line, your current app open in play store.

Shared Preference or Session Management (Login-Logout)

Android provides many ways to store data in application. One of those ways is to use of Shared Preference . Shared Preference allows you to save and retrieve data in the form of key-value pair. For getting shared preference data of your app, you have to call a method getSharedPreference() , that will return SharedPreference instance that contains key-value pairs of preference. SharedPreferences preferences = getSharedPreferences("login", Context.MODE_PRIVATE); Remember this name "login" remains same for fetching all data related to login task and also its key: Suppose, we put "isUserLogin" boolean true after login success, then first time app launch, in Launcher Screen we have to check same key "isUserLogin". if (preferences.contains("isUserLogin")) { Intent intent = new Intent(SplashActivity.this, HomeActivity.class); startActivity(intent); } else { Intent intent = new Intent(SplashActivity.this, LoginActivity.class); ...
