AWS Cognito- get user information with ID

Is there any way to get information about the user in AWS Cognito pool (on android) who is not logged in, knowing his ID? I tried that code:

 AppHelper.getPool().getUser(username).getDetailsInBackground(detailsHandler);

However it works only for username who is currently logged in.

Use ListUsers() Api , with filters ie

    client = boto3.client('cognito-idp', region_name=USER_POOL_REGION)
    user = client.list_users(
            UserPoolId = USER_POOL_ID,
            AttributesToGet=attributes, # ie ['email', 'sub',]
            Filter='sub = "<user-id-here>"',
            #Limit=limit
    )

for complex filters and examples see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/how-to-manage-user-accounts.html#cognito-user-pools-searching-for-users-listusers-api-examples

No, there is not.

You get get user information given the user name by calling AdminGetUser from you backend with your developer credentials but not from an Android client.
