How can I just open SMS inbox in Android

Question

I want just to open SMS application inbox in Android when I click a button. Many answers are about reading the SMSs or writing a new SMS but I want only to access/open SMS inbox. How can I do it?

Answer 1

I think you're looking for this,

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_APP_MESSAGING);
startActivity(intent);
